Simplified Metadata API allows the application to work with classes that allow simple access to particular properties, without the need to know details of the XMP standard, and with only the minimal knowledge of XMP schemas.
Simplified API only supports schemas that are known to ImageGear. See ImGearXMPMetadataRoot Class for a list of supported schemas.
XMP schemas use arrays and structures extensively. Please read the Using Arrays and Structures topic.
