[magick-users] Mogrify and losing Metadata

Hi,

When using mogify's -format parameter, or convert, to an image from one
format to another, something strange happens to the metadata.  The new file
does contain the metadata, however only a few apps can read it.

For example, Exiftool can read it, but Photoshop and Windows can't.   Most
photo sites to which you can upload photos are also blind to the embedded
metadata.

Is this a known problem?  Will it be fixed?

Regards,

Tim
