On occasion, the metadata in images can become corrupted, especially if you have used image editing software. When this happens, these images can create issues when publishing, such as misprints or validation issues.
Atticus protects you by sending a warning about images with metadata issues and other problems preventing you from uploading problematic images.
If you’ve gotten a warning message, don’t worry– this is an easy issue to fix using free online software like Canva to clean your image. It takes less than five minutes.
Step 1: Log in to Your Canva Account

Step 2: Click on “Upload”, and upload your image
Step 3: After your image is uploaded, click on “Edit image”
Step 4: Click on the “Download” button, and download your image
Step 5: Reupload your image to Atticus. This time, it should be cleaned, and should work without any issue.
