Thanks for everyone’s input reporting back. If EXIF is not available for you in GIMP's `Save As' dialog, then it's your RAW convertor the one to be blamed :) it's a high-contrast and mostly solid filled image, or B&W) I save as an appropriate PNG with level 9 compression.ĮXIF data is actually stored in RAW. The concept of lossy images (and music, and.) offends me in some profound way. xcf.bz2 (compressed native file) the working file (usually with many layers to add masked sharpness, masked saturation tweaking, and burn/dodge), and when I'm all done I save as 100% JPEG. UFRaw keeps the metadata as a GIMP "parasite" data block. I take the RAW and load it in the GIMP using UFRaw. If I wanted to put the Exif stuff back in, then I could do so with one of the little exif editing programs. I shoot RAW with my *istD, and convert using RawShooter from Pixmantec into JPG. My understanding is that TIFF is just a wrapper for any sort of image.
'AccidntlTourist', I'm surprised you're using TIFF. The EXIF data you had was lost when the TIFF file you were working on was created. You can't save the EXIF information in that case because it doesn't exist to save. Umm the standard TIFF format doesn't contain EXIF metadata. I see if I start with a jpeg, I’m okay doesn’t like Camedia tif? I’m saving my RAW to TIF in Olympus Camedia and then opening TIF in GIMP. My tired old eyes didn’t see the grayed out exif option – not available to me.Īs you can see, when I open a TIF image, I get an error (see screen shot) when I edit and go to save as a jpeg – the exif option is grayed out. Once they are all uploaded I move the XCF files to a folder called "Flickr-done" and delete the JPG files.ĭavid's batch processor can be downloaded from here. I upload all of them using the Flickr Upload tool. I then use "David's Batch Processor" to convert the entire lot into JPG's using a quality setting of 0.85. I always open the JPEG, save it as a lossless XCF file into a folder I call "Flickr-up", do my editing and repeat for all photos I will be doing in the session. Click advanced options and there is a "Save EXIF". I’ve looked at my preferences don’t see any settings for exif.ĭuring the save process you will get the JPEG control dialog. It didn’t used to I wonder if it was a result of recent GIMP upgrade? to 2.2.11 ? or something I’m doing when saving pic? I searched previous posts here, but didn’t see any with this issue: This group looks like a great GIMP resource.
