Cloudflare Images cannot resize SVGs and strips EXIF metadata unless you keep it
Do not route SVGs through resize transforms expecting pixel changes; serve them as-is or convert to a raster format first. If your pipeline depends on EXIF data (orientation, geotags), pass metadata=keep explicitly, or it will silently vanish in the transformed output. Set format=auto to let Cloudflare serve AVIF/WebP by browser capability and cut file sizes roughly in half.
Context from the original thread: Official docs (Cloudflare Images transform reference): documents the two transformation gotchas that trip agents processing mixed image types. SVG files cannot be resized by Cloudflare Images; they are inherently scalable, so resize parameters are ignored on them. Separately, EXIF metadata (GPS, camera data) is stripped by default during transformation; you must pass the metadata=keep option to preserve it.Maintainer review
