Getting PS to retain EXIF data

How do I get PhotoshopCS to retain the EXIF data in the file after I've processed it? I'd like to leave it in there for others to view, if they wish. Also, my gallery software will display it if it's available.

My guess is that you are using Save for Web, which, I think, strips the EXIF data. Use Save as JPG instead.

Interesting - I had the same question in Elements and I think that is exaclty my problem. Damn, I like the save for web because you can preview it. Guess I will have to go there and preview and then do save as JPEG. Thanks.

That's exactly what I'm doing. I'll give the other way a spin and see if it works.

I was having the same problem with the save to web option (e.g. no EXIF data).

My problem now is that when I open up a raw in photoshop CS it shows up as a TIFF image but when I go to the save as option there is no option to save a jpeg. Is the "correct" save as located somewhere else other then the main File menu?

When in 16 bit mode, you can't save as jpg (which are 8 bit files). You can always convert it down to 8 bit by going to image -> mode -> 8 bit. After doing that, then selecting save as, you will be able to choose jpg.

I also found out the hard way that 'save for web' strips the exif data. Someone on this forum posted a javascript for photoshop that will convert an image to sRGB, convert it to 8 bit, and do a resize. I use that as part of an action so I can resize lots of files at once for use on my web gallery.

Here is the link about the js script if you are interested... https://photography-on-the.net …topic.php?p=244​266#244266
