Vesrion 22.1 Excessive file size

[#1]

JPG and PNG images are saving as excessively large files.  For example,  a1080 by 608 image save as 35 MB no matter what level of Quaklity I used.  Same for a 1256 by 1360 PNG.  Export as works fine.

It's excessive metadata, usually caused by a long history of copy/paste (such as web files or templates). It can sometimes accumulate to extreme sizes.

Export and Save For Web both strip metadata.

@D Fosse Thanks.  These were imported assests from the Adobe/Pixar Challenge so Pixar must have included a bunch of metadat.
