VIPSHEADER(1) General Commands Manual VIPSHEADER(1)

vipsheader - prints information about an image file

vipsheader [OPTIONS ...] files ...

vipsheader(1) prints image header fields to stdout.

Show all fields. Fields are displayed to be convenient for humans to read, so binary data, for example, is summarized rather than simply printed.

Print the value of FIELD from the image header. Fields are printed in a way suitable for programs to understand, so, for example, binary data is base64-encoded and printed as a stream of characters.

The special field name getext prints the VIPS extension block: the XML defining the image metadata. You can alter this, then reattach with vipsedit(1).

You can use multiple "-f" arguments to print the values of many fields.
