I was looking for a tool to remove all meta data (including EXIF data) from JPEG files, before I would upload them to Picasa. Unfortunately
CocoviewX does only remove some EXIF data, but not all other meta data such as comments, copyright notice, etc. Fortunately
jhead, a command line tool for all major operating systems, allows to tune the degree of info removal and has also a nice "remove all" feature.
You can strip all meta info from JPEGs in a folder by using the shell and typing:
jhead -purejpg *.jpg
PS: After downloading jhead from the
official website you might need to make it executable (
chmod 755 jhead) and move it to a proper location (
sudo mv jhead /usr/local/bin).
