Frequently asked questions
- Where does the format come from?
- From the first bytes of the file, not from its extension, so a renamed file is reported correctly.
- What does removing metadata do?
- The picture is redrawn in a clean canvas, which drops EXIF, GPS and camera tags. Everything is local.
