Removing metadata (EXIF) from a file on the fly

[ctphoto]

Is there anyway I can get Hazel to remove (strip) metadata (EXIF) from a file? These would all be photo image files.

Thank you.

You'll need a script to do that part. I suspect "exiftool" may be useful for this.

Make a script with what application on the Mac? Then Hazel will run it?

[Mr_Noodle]

Hazel has a "Run shellscript" action. You can write a shellscript that runs the "exiftool" program (which you may need to install). Search the forums here as there are people that use scripts with exiftool for other things. You may be able to adapt one of those.
