![]() ![]() One thing I realized after reading this topic is that most of the problems came from files I got from other clients, generally on PCs (I'm on a Mac). It's been about 2 years since all my Indesign files suddenly got HUGE, even if my PSDs were small. Now THIS is really what I was looking for! I would not recommend that any metadata is stripped from original camera files and that this is only performed on outgoing copies of the originals. (This command is for the Mac OS, Windows would use double straight quote marks around the path to the file) This ExifTool command line code can “easily” be added to a drag-n-drop icon or other system level automation on either Mac or Windows, without ongoing need to use the CLI and code. The following command strips most of the metadata, retaining the ICC profile (including removal of camera make, model and settings):Įxiftool -all= -CommonIFD0= -icc_profile:all 'full path to file' You know me well enough by now to expect that I am going to post an ExifTool command to perform this task. ![]() There are a couple of key metadata groups that remain, such as IFD0/TIFF (camera make/model info) and EXIF (camera settings info). I tested with a layered PSD from a raw camera file and your script appears to only remove XMP metadata, whereas mo54891077 is looking to remove “all” metadata, but most importantly EXIF/Camera related metadata. ![]()
