Hi Sheeba Padmanabhan,

Thanks for your interest in Sanselan.
I'd like to encourage you to take a look at the code and see if you

Hi,



I am new to Sanselan.. I would like to extract EXIF metadata from Tiff
image... When using Sanselan, I have noticed some of the properties  
like
Make, Model etc are missing. Is there any way to extract ALL metadata
information from TIFF image.. Its extracting all the info nicely from
JPEG format.

This is what I used

       IImageMetadata metadata = null;

       Try

       {

           metadata = Sanselan.getMetadata(file);

       } catch ( ImageReadException e) {

           e.printStackTrace();

       } catch ( IOException e) {

           e.printStackTrace();

       }

       if( metadata instanceof TiffImageMetadata)

       {

           TiffImageMetadata tiggMetadata = (TiffImageMetadata)
metadata;



            ArrayList items = tiggMetadata.getItems();

           for (int i = 0; i < items.size(); i++) {

               Object item = items.get(i);

               System.out.println("    " + "item: " +

                   item);

           }

           System.out.println(tiggMetadata.toString());

       }

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

Sheeba Padmanabhan
