Retaining EXIF when using Photoshop?

Hi all,

Hopefully a quick question.

If I use Lightroom and export from Lightroom, EXIF data remains intact.

If I edit a photo in Lightroom, then take it out into Photoshop for some edits (for example, adding some text) and then' Save for Web', it strips all EXIF data. I have now found out that this is a 'feature' of CS4.

How else to I save a JPG from Photoshop CS4 without stripping the EXIF?

Thanks

JPEG isn't an option in CS4 when choosing 'Save As'

Ah yes, that seems to have fixed the problem.

So this will definitely keep the EXIF data, even if I have added text layers?

Does changing to 8 bits/channel cause any loss of quality in the final image?

Nice one, thanks dude.

EDIT: I just tried this and the final image came out much darker, the colours weren't right. Hmm.
