maintaining meta data in eps files

We receive jpeg files with meta data but sometimes in the process of converting to CMYK and color correction all of this info disappears. We save the images as eps for final output. Most are fine but some lose all the meta data. Please let me know if you have any idea what is causing this.
 
Re: maintaining meta data in eps files

Are all of your computers running the same software versions and operating systems? Are you finding images (processed on other computers) that do not have the metadata you want or have you watched this happen on your computer? Have you opened a jpeg with metadata, saved it as an EPS then not have been able to read any metadata? In other words, look for variables among the files.
It could just be that someone is opening the file in Photoshop and then copying the contents into a new document because they are afraid of messing up the original. That would definitely trash the metadata.
