My exif data is missing

[kidShootero]

Guys, I know that exif file/data will not register to flickR anymore if there is a heavy or too much editing made to the photo, but viewing other (of other users) photos on flickR w/c i think has been edited (lightly or too much) still contains details of the exif file/data. How is it possible to maintain that data?

i noticed that when i saved images as ping, i would get no exif data uploaded to flickr... but jpeg should maintain it.
what format are you saving your files in?

@jdmfresh - jpeg too.. most of the time I use jpeg, if u can visit my flickR site, u will notice that most edited photo i post do not show exif file.

tnx for the reply!!

If some of your PP photos do and some don't I suspect that either a particular piece of software does not honour your EXIF. Or its a problem with your workflow when processing an image such as pasting the image into another one.

or "saving to web" strips exif data

Exactly.. anytime you save to web it strips off all data to help compress the file to its smallest (most web friendly) size.
