Re: Strange things happen to EXIF

In PWP 7, the JPEG Save dialog gives you the option to strip or save comments. The dialog typically defaults to its last setting. So perhaps the Include Comments checkbox was unchecked at some point. Make sure it is checked to preserve the comments.

Re: Previous = Shift-Ins

Another alternative is to use the History tab in the thumbnail browser in the left panel. This shows dialogs and all images arranged according to their evolution. Clicking on a dialog or image item in the display brings it to the top.

Re: Deleting 32bit version

Since both the PWP 32 and 64 bit versions of a given release share the same serial number, the PWP version you ran was probably an older release for which a serial number was not available. Running it may have reset/erased some parameters in your preferences -- particularly parameters which have bee...

Re: Updating Browse Info in bulk, across folders

I see no difference between adding a folder with or without subfolders. All the images in the path are opened in the workflow in either case.

Re: EXIF/ IPTC removal

David, If your intention is to save the file without comments, you should uncheck 'Include Comments' in the Save As dialog. There is no reason to wait for the little statistics popup (i.e. Save File - JPEG). That said, I can confirm that there is a bug in the Save File (JPEG) dialog in that comments...

Re: EXIF/ IPTC removal

I glossed over your point on Show Statistics in the JPEG options portion of the File Save dialog. Show Statistics refers to the pop-up that is displayed after the file is saved. This popup reports the actual size of the saved file after compression. If you need more compression (or have more room an...

Re: EXIF/ IPTC removal

Formats like Tiff and Jpeg only apply to image when they are stored as files. Once an image is read into picture Window it is represented in memory in uncompressed form. Thus if you save that image twice, say once with and once without comments, each save is made directly from the memory representat...

Re: EXIF/ IPTC removal

The operation is the same in both cases -- Save and Save As both recompress the image. However unless you are using a very low jpeg quality setting, the effect of this is minimal. You can determine the impact of this recompression by comparing the before and after images using Special Effects/Differ...

Re: EXIF/ IPTC removal

When you save a file as jpeg, you have the option to include comments. If you uncheck the option, the saved file will be stripped of comments. This option is also available in workflow. This allows you to save a separate copy for use on the web, for instance. This is a sticky setting, so make sure t...
