Another way that can be used for BASH scripting is a multi-field read. For example... read width height filesize \ <<< $( convert -ping rose: -format "%w %h %b" info: ) echo $width $height $filesize 70 46 9673B This is very advanced but works very well! PS: it is a good idea that -ping is put before the image!
