Chapter 2: Documents and Setup
To view EXIF information:
1. Select an image in your Canvas document.
2. Do one of the following:
Choose Image | DCS information (EXIF).
Right-click the image and choose DCS information (EXIF).
If the image does not contain any EXIF information, the DCS information (EXIF)
option is not available.
Exporting EXIF information
When you export an image, if you choose JPEG (8-bit/channel) or TIFF (8-bit/channel or 16-
bit/channel) format, you can export the EXIF information with the image. (See "Creating Web pages
from Canvas documents" on page 714). However, the EXIF data is only preserved if you have not
made changes to the image in the Canvas document, or if you have made changes to the image's
pixels, such as if you've fixed red eye. If you have made other changes to the image, such as rotated,
skewed, or adjusted the transparency, or if you have composited other objects with the image, the
EXIF information is not preserved.
To export EXIF Information:
1. Select an image in your Canvas document.
2. Choose Image | Export | JPEG or TIFF.
3. Type a filename and select a location for the exported image.
4. Click Save.
5. In the Export Options dialog box, select the Include EXIF Data check box.
6. Click OK.
Using Canvas templates
Canvas includes many ready-made templates, and you can create your own template documents.
Then, when you use the New command, you can select a template — either one supplied with Canvas
or one you have created — to create a new document based on the contents and configuration of the
template.
