Hi,

Is it Photoshop CS that can’t save EXIF data properly so that WinXP can read it or is it just WinXP that doesn’t support EXIF data in TIFF files?

If I open a RAW file from my Canon PowerShot Pro 1 in Photoshop CS with the Camera RAW plugin 2.2 installed, and saves the image as JPEG, WinXP shows me this: <http://home18.inet.tele.dk/madsen/winxp/exif_jpeg.png> but the same file saved as TIFF only shows this:
<http://home18.inet.tele.dk/madsen/winxp/exif_tiff.png>.

Tom, i’m probably not qualified to answer everything in there, but at the very least make sure you have service pack 1 and all updates installed for xp… I’ll let someone else take it from there… 🙂

Dave,

I forgot to mention, that it’s WinXP Pro SP1 I’m talking about.

I’ve also tried in SP2 RC2 and the same thing happens:

XP doesn’t appear to read EXIF data in TIFF images.

And don’t use XP to change metadata – or it can destroy your files.

Too bad. I’ve filed a bug rapport today. It probably doesn’t change anything whatsoever but at least there’s hope that MS fix it some day.

And don’t use XP to change metadata – or it can destroy your files.

Couldn’t dream of using XP for that but thanks for the warning. 🙂
