EXIF Information

Does anyone know how to completely remove EXIF information from image files? I want to submit some images that were shot as NEF, have been edited as .psd, and saved as .jpg for printing. For the sumission, I am required to resize them to a small web-type image for them to preview. The people that will be reviewing the images are very savvy, I assume; but I would like to make sure they CANNOT read my EXIF or IPTC or metadata concerning the images I send them. Is this possible? And if so, how?

Yeah, just "save for web". That will knock out your exif data. The option is under "file". Just don't compress the image.

I think in the later version of PS or LR you can pick which data it shows. That may just be the user added data though.

You could always have fun with the user added part. Big Grin

I think with any PS version you can add exif data like notes or copyright info.
A long time ago I had Paint Shop Pro and I didn't know if there was a way to get rid of the exif data so I just copied my image, made a new blank image, pasted the otehr image over it, flattened and saved, then the exif data was for the new image I had created so there was no camera info on it, just the date it was created.
