ExifToolGUI (http://freeweb.siol.net/hrastni3/foto/exif/exiftoolgui.htm) isn't a perfect solution, but so far, it's been sufficient for my needs.

I have this utility too; it does use ExifTool as its "engine".

The first is a very fine program called Exiftool (currently at version 8.28) which allows all sorts of clever reading and manipulations of the .jpg file header information.

Not only jpegs, tif's & raw files too. Fortunately, ExifToolGUI creates a backup as default.

I use CS4 and save as Tif usually. I have never been able to make the Qimage recognise the size that I saved at and always have to choose it again and have found this annoying but never thought to complain about it, i just got used to doing it. but it sure would be nice if Original Size actually worked.

Jules,
Original size works perfectly in my computer.
I have some tifs saved in CS5, and and some from CS4.
There are some items that need to be set correctly in Qimage Custom, Original size.
Make sure the checkmark is NOT in Override.
Say yes, if Qimage advises that your image is larger than the page, do you want to use multiple pages.

Works perfectly.
Both of the attached images were 240 ppi from Photo Shop.

Yep, ExifToolGUI is handy. You can't edit ALL fields, as I assume you can with ExifTool itself, but it's all I need at present. The default backup is indeed a convenient feature.

Ditto for the "All Metadata" option under "Remove." Have you seen the recent news stories about people who have unwittingly revealed their exact location by innocently posting photos from their brand-new GPS-enabled camera? A great way to reveal to the world exactly where you're getting all of those great shots of unspoiled nature, wildlife, etc. And as a matter of safety, I guess it would be okay to post a picture of your new and expensive flat-screen TV to your Facebook page, but stripping the GPS metadata before you post might be a good idea. Modern life.
