David While it's possible I made a mistake when I did some testing this morning, Michael also came to the same conclusions using a slightly different way of comparing. I know Marc knows his biscuits but what he said doesn't seem to square (I have heard the same thing said before on other lists and it seems to make perfect sense). However, our testing showed JPEGs saved from Photoshop, metadata removed and saved again using File < Save showed some recompression. Anyone else care to do some testing?
