All:

I want to make sure that metadata, especially updated information like titles, descriptions, etc. is
correct in downloaded files. I seem to be having a problem with that. I *think* this is what is happening:
- I view, edit, ... pictures thereby fording various size images to be created (e.g., medium, large, extra-large)
- I edit titles, description, etc.
- "Write Metadata" via Batch Manager
- download pictures/album via "Download" link on album page (for example)

In many /most cases, the new metadata is not in the downloaded pictures. I strongly suspect that
the generated sizes are not subsequently updated when a "Write Metadata" happens -- the Write Metadata
only updates the "original" version of the picture. Is that true?

My clumsy workaround to this is to:
- update titles, etc.
- "Write Metadata"
- "Delete Multiple Size Images" via Batch Manager
- "Generate Multiple Size Images" via Batch Manager
- download
This *seems* to work but is a not a good solution for me as (1) I often forget to do the above steps
after fixing a title typo, (2) it takes a *long* time to regenerate the many different sizes
after a serious session of titling, etc.

Do I understand how the system is working and is there a better solution to this problem?
