Removing exif increases the file size

Post by lesnaja »

File size increases after removing exif of file in jpg - it is not very correct. It would be better if the file size decreases.

:) Hello ! Welcome aboard !

• This could happen when the JPEG quality in the Options is higher than the original one.
- Despite the subtraction of the Exif data, the image ones themselves are getting bigger when saved…
- Just a thought …

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
