Supported browsers: ![Internet Explorer](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/icons/ie8.png)![Firefox](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/icons/firefox.png)![Google Chrome](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/icons/chrome.png)![Safari](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/icons/safari.png)
 
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the thumbnail should contain EXIF metadata copied from the original file.

## Syntax
 
```
public function getThumbnailCopyExif() {
}

public function setThumbnailCopyExif($value) {
}
```
 
### Property Value
 
Type: **boolean**
 
If `true`, the EXIF information is copied from the original file. Otherwise, EXIF metadata will not be preserved.
 
Default value is **false**.

## Remarks
 
**Note** 
ActiveX/Java Uploader Express does not preserve EXIF metadata while creating thumbnails. See the [Upload Suite Editions](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/upload-suite-editions.htm.md) topic for details.
 
This property makes sense only if the [Mode](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/JA_P_P_Converter_Mode.htm.md) property has the `Thumbnail` value.
