--- Comment #1 from Urs Fleisch <uflei...@users.sourceforge.net> ---
Tagging libraries usually do not shrink the file when the size of the tag is
reduced, because - as is the case with ID3v2 tags which are at the beginning of
the file - this would mean rewriting the whole file, which takes time and is
not wanted by all users. Kid3 offers always the possibility to shrink the file
as much as possible (when possible by the 3rd party tagging library), but in
order to to this, you have to remove the tag, save the file without a "Tag 2"
and then add a new tag. You can do this manually by copying the tag of a single
file, removing the tag, saving and finally pasting the copied tag and saving
again. For multiple tags without picture, you could export the tags, remove
them and then import them again. As this is all tedious (and I also want my
files with pictures removed and tags shrinked) there is a user action "Rewrite
Tags", which does this in an automated way, you just have to select the files,
right click to get the context menu and select "Rewrite Tags".
