If you add descriptions to images in Google Drive and then download those images, the descriptions are not attached anywhere in the image properties/metadata. Is there a way prevent this or are the descriptions stored externally to the image, as opposed to as metadata (IPTC, XMP, EXIF)?

Google Drive user interface doesn't have a built-in way to view or edit IPTC, XMP, EXIF metadata. As far as I know, Drive SDK has method to get the image metadata but not to change it.
