I wish to be able to add or revise metadata in JPG files without degrading the image by recompressing it.
If I open the JPG file in Photoshop CS and modify the metadata with File > File Info, the file must be resaved, the compression image quality respecified, and an inevitable mild further degradation of the image results from this recompression.
However, if I use the file browser and modify one or more of the editable fields in the displayed metadata IPTC section (or if I request to Append Metadata or Replace metadata from a template), there is no indication that the file is being recompressed when this metadata is added.
I would like to know for sure whether or not revising metadata with the file browser in this manner involves a new JPG recompression cycle and therefore does or does not degrade the compressed image further.
Thank you
