EXIF metadata Dumped #33

Closed jujumo closed 9 years ago

jujumo commented 9 years ago

I just try trimage, and was really exited by its potential. Unfortunatly, I cannot use it beacuse it drops most of the EXIFS metadata (see it with exiftool). Its probabliy due to the way jpegoptim works. Buts sincce youre wrapping around it, maybe you can also use exiftool to also copy metadata into the new optimized file ?

Regards, Julien

Trimage is made to optimize images for websites/online usage, where EXIF isn't needed. If you want to compress images but keep the exif data, please use another tool

OK, thanks. I should have read that If I spent more time to read the description. Sorry for the inconvienance.

FWIW, we're considering adding a big warning on first startup
