Reduce file size of images exported through iPhoto
I bumped headlong into this problem long before I started dealing with iPhoto. In fact I'm convinced that this metadata is added into .jpg files by OS X itself.
For example: when my daughter was born, the hospital posted photos of her online. Each .jpg was no larger than 35 KB. I viewed these images using Internet Explorer and then saved them to my desktop. Surprise! Now each picture was 100+ KB! It's something the OS itself was adding in. The only way I've found around this is to save the picture using Photoshop...see comment above.
Reduce file size of images exported through iPhoto
Hey Pheed. I just tested this with IE: an otherwise 9k jpg had 150k extra data added to it. In this case, it's IE adding the extra data, in the form of a resource fork. That's different metadata than this hint is referring to, which is embedded information in the data fork. There are hints on this site about how to get rid of resource forks that will take care of the problem you were having. |
