Martin Šebesta Posted April 3, 2024 Posted April 3, 2024 Hi Affinity beta! Steps to reproduce: - open a New Batch Job from the File menu. - add the attached .HEIC file - set the output to .JPG with 100% quality - start the conversion The resulting file will miss the 'Date taken' property from the .HEIC file - see the second attached file here. I did not check the other properties... From my observations, it occurs only with big files - like the attached panorama from my iPhone. Best regards, Martin. IMG_4015.HEIC

Staff Chris B Posted April 4, 2024 Staff Posted April 4, 2024 Hi Martin, I can see info in EXIF Tool, however, it looks like it might be a general import issue in Affinity as it's nuking a lot of the info even on File > Open...

Hi Chris, thanks for the analysis - i can only confirm, that i tried it in the 2.2.1 and it is the same - so, very probably, we found an older bug.... Chris B 1
