Adobe Copyright in Image files

[Kent5CC9]

I noticed an Adobe copyright statement in images created by some developers in my company.  They used Photoshop, so does the Photoshop license address this?  Can we turn this off?

A copyright  statement or was it Meta data stating Photoshop was used. Who developed the images could they have been purchased by Adobe and copyrighted. You can strip meta data including copyright.  Removing the Meta data copyright does not make the image not copyrighted.

Thank you.  It is not in the metadata available through Windows.  It can only be seen via WinPad or TextPad.

Photoshop supports IPTC copyright metadata and latter variants through File > File Info or using other metadata tools such as metadata templates or other apps (Lightroom, Bridge, ExifTool etc).
