This Perl extention allows you to extract meta information from various types of image files. The following file formats are supported: JPEG (plain JFIF and Exif) PNG GIF PBM/PGM/PPM SVG XBM/XPM BMP/DIB/RLE Usage is something like this: use Image::Info qw(image_info); @info = image_info("filename"); $refto_hash_describing_1st_image = $info[0]; $refto_hash_describing_2nd_image = $info[1]; Copyright 1999-2004 Gisle Aas. Now maintained by Tels Note that while the module is still maintained, no new features will be added. Especially the EXIF parsing code is buggy, not tested at all, and quite incomplete (a lot of manufacturer's MakerNotes and tags are not parsed at all). If you want a stable, feature-complete, up-to-date and tested EXIF parsing library, please use Image::ExifTool.
