info added to exported photos

[fleur challis]

Hi, can anyone help with why there's suddenly a header on exported photos? Can't work out how to get rid of it! Thank you

The picture I'd added doesn't show the problem but on the exported photos it gives file names and the option to draw on the photo etc

More information please. 

A screen-clip of the Exported photo?

What "Header" are you referring to?

I don't know what you mean by- "the option to draw on the photo"

Lightroom Version Number?

Hi, thanks so much - this is what it looks like

The header you're seeing is the toolbar of the Mac Preview app, which is the default app for viewing images:

You can hide most of it by doing the Preview menu commands View > Hide Markup Toolbar and View > Hide Toolbar.

Thanks so much, I cannot see that option under View though?

See this screenshot to see where Hide Markup Toolbar and Hide Toolbar are:

Thank you so much

It's because you're opening the exported file in Mac's "Preview" program, which now gives the option to mark up files.  The header and option to draw aren't on your photo - they're just part of the program that you're using to look at your file.

Thank you very much

The others are correct, that is the title bar of a document window in Apple Preview. And because of that, if you open the same image in any other application such as Photoshop, or using Apple QuickLook, you will see a different window title bar, since it is not part of the picture itself.
