TIFF Annotations

Post by tbh524 »

We have somewhere around 3 million tiff image files some of which have annotations.

How can I identify those with annotations?

I ran identify -verbose on a few of them and didn't see anything that stood out as a flag I can look at.

Anyone know how annotations are stored and a quick way to find out if a tiff is annotated at all??

Thanks,
-Tim

post a link to an example Tiff with your annotation. I presume you do not mean text imbedded in the image, but some header data with the annotation.

Did you use identify -verbose image.tiff? That will have the most information.

Or

try exiftool and see if it will identify the annotation.
