EXIF Information

I love Neat Image, really worth my money. However, it does not save the EXIF information of the image. Is there any way this could be added to the product? It really causes a break with my workflow.

Actually it does in most cases. Could you give some more details on your workflow to help us identify the source of the trouble.

In a similar vain, can you tell NI to disregard ALL EXIF and PICT data and only save output files with the actual JPEG graphic data ?

This would be useful for then uploading to the web for smaller files. I usually preprocess with EXIFER and MetaStripper which is a bit time consuming.

Thanks

This will require an additional option. We will probably add it in the future.

It works fine with JPEG, but no EXIF saved in TIFF. Is it a problem of TIFF format?

No, it works with most TIFFs as well.

The problem is the saving. If I save in JPEG, it preserves EXIF information well. But if I choose TIFF, it doesn't. (2.5 Home)

The problem turns out to be with Dimage Viewer, it doesn't shot EXIF data in the TIFF file.

input format varies results

Using Canon FileViewer I found that EXIF was lost if my input format was JPG (with TIFF output) and that EXIF was preserved if my input format was TIFF16bit (and TIFF16bit output). In both cases the resulting processed files lacked thumbnails in Canon Fileviewer.

BreezeBrowser Demo 2.6b shows the thumbnails, but incomplete EXIF for my TIFF --> TIFF and corrupted EXIF for my JPEG --> TIFFs.

I've submitted a bug report.

2.5 Pro

Great results in the filtered files, but I need to have that EXIF for archiving.

Any further forward with this request to remove all data but just leave the image data intact for web uploading etc ?

Thanks,

Rick

Please take a look into Options->General->Preserve EXIF data in output images (when possible).
