Stripping exif?

[slappy sam]

Do you guys strip exif when you post images on your website (ie: portfolio photos)? And would you leave in the metadata copyright stuff?

Oooh 1000 posts... wow I post too much.

in photoshop, "save for web" completely strips all the EXIF Data.

If you to omit only certain info or details, I think you need to manually do it yourself, but I may be wrong.

Yea I'm just trying to figure out whether or not/when I should. I know how to do it :)

Portfolio photos have no exif, people don't need it and it adds to file size. I use EXIFer to remove it, or save for web. For high res CDs I strip exif and add copyright info.

When i post images here i leave the exif info in tact. But like Tim, when a client buys the high-res files, i strip the exif and add copyright information.

how can one strip the data but add the copyright info? I use Lightroom, & PS CS3 on a Mac.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Thanks

EXIFer doesn't run on a mac, but there will be software to do it, maybe try google.

You can do it with CS3

You can do it with CS3

how though? Can you 'walk' me through it?

I haven't thoroughly explored it but file info under the menu heading file is the place to look.

I leave just IPTC (needed for our online archive to extract it anyway, and for clients when they download photos) but remove exif. I do this automatically with Photo Mechanic when uploading photos. But IPTC always stays.
