asked on

image file header info

i need to be able to recognise an image and process it accordingly by looking at the header information in the file.

therefore, i need to know the exact format of each image file header... is this information available in a simple format anywhere??

a text file outlining the exact byte format would be great.

i only need the format the header of jpg, bmp, pcx and gif files (all types).

thanx

thankyou for your answers... but... is there any more complete definitions on the JPEG header standard??  i looked at http://www.obrador.com/essentialjpeg/HeaderInfo.htm and it didnt cover a lot of the headers adobe uses when creating jpgs...

i just need to create a program that extracts the width and height details from image files (jpgs in particular)
jpeg and some other formats can be found at my website:

happy coding,
