Hello,
i use a Linux Server with CF8 an want to read out or manipulate the dpi of
pictures with cfimage. I have found it only in the function
ImageGetEXIFMetaData, but not every picture have the Exif Data.
Is it right, that this function is not supported in CF8?
Thanks!
Carsten
When you're dealing with images for display on computer screens, there's
really no such thing as dpi. It all has to do with the pixel dimensions.
If you have a 1600x1200 image, then it would be 22in x 16in at 72dpi (on a
monitor) or 5in x 4in at 300dpi.

You're also confusing image quality (compression) with DPI (or pixel
dimensions). At it's heart, a bitmapped (or raster) image, is simply a
series of 1 pixels blocks with specific color assignments. An image doesn't
know what quality (compression) it is. It also doesn't know what

variable that is going to store the query in the calling code. i.e. I would

except that it is a reverse measure: the higher the compression is,

Some softwares use % compression, some others % in quality.

Just a note that your method does not return a struct or an array, which is
