Hi Kyle,
Have you seen Exiftool at all? It might be what you're looking for. But,
I guess it really depends on what you mean by "metadata" in the images.

Howdy all,
I need to extract all the metadata from a few thousand images on a network
drive and put it into spreadsheet. Since the files are huge (each is
100MB+) and my connection isn't that fast, I strongly prefer to not move
them before working on them -- i.e. I'm using cygwin and/or windows.
Just eyeballing these things, I see the headers contain everything I need
in purty rdf. What's the best way to extract this? I thought tiffinfo would
do the trick, but it's just giving me technical info. Of course I can just
parse the files with perl but I'm thinking there just has to be a slicker
way to do this. What's my best option? Thanks,
kyle
