Abstract
A method of preserving metadata in an electronic image file includes copying metadata into the image file from a metadata backup database after the metadata are removed from the electronic image file. An image file management application comprised of computer-readable instructions stored on a computer-readable medium, causes a computer or processor to access an electronic image file and copy metadata into the image file from a metadata backup database after the metadata are removed from the electronic image file.
