I've been converting some TIFF files to JPGs by exporting TIFFs from LR as JPGs, keeping all metadata, and then importing the JPGs into LR.
I've noticed that even if the TIFFs contain information in exif User Comment field and it's included in the exported JPGs, LR won't display it with the imported JPG.
I've confirmed that the JPGs contain comments by examining the files in a text editor and by using Jeffrey Friedl's Metadata Viewer from LR and running exiftool from a Windows command window.
GPS data is also not displayed even though it's in the JPG. There could be other problems that I haven't noticed yet.
Same behavior using LR 9.3 and 9.4
I still have the TIFF files.
Not that it matters but any thoughts as to why LR won't use User Comment and GPS data from an imported JPG that it created?
And least painful way to fix JPGs? At this point I'll probably import TIFFs back into LR.
I'm not going to wait for Adobe to fix but I will submit a bug report. I think that if LR creates the metadata, LR should read the metadata.
JPG created by exporting TIFF from Photoshop has the same problem.
Thanks.
