Hi,

I have a issue removing IPTC profile from files. If I use -strip the IPTC profile is removed but not if I only use +profile iptc. Other profiles are removed (eg +profile xmp) but not the IPTC profile. Is it becuase custom IPTC fields are present?
Test image is found on ftp://customer:laidback@ftp.laidbacksol ... k/koe_.jpg

Platform: OSX 10.6.8 (also tested on Win with same result)

The IPTC profile is embedded in the 8BIM profile and ImageMagick extracts it. To delete the IPTC profile you must delete both. Use +profile iptc,8bim.
