Clipping paths are lost in image renditions

[user00295]

Hi All,

We have some PSD images managed in AEM DAM. These images have the clipping path added to them.

It's observed that renditions generated for these images don't retain the clipping paths after they are processed by DAM Update asset workflow.

Any suggests or idea how we can retain the clipping paths in imagerenditions?

Thanks,

Sayabanna

Clipping paths aren’t extracted out-of-the-box in AEM DAM since they’re stored in Photoshop metadata, not XMP headers. But with a custom workflow, you can extract and store them for seamless use in Dynamic Media.  For details, refer to:
