extracting image data

Hi there,

I've got an app that processes images, at the moment I'm using imagemagick to do it.

I've been extracting data from the images using image macgick but it's really slow at doing this (width, height, file type, exif data etc)

does anyone know any good programs that I can use to extract image data?

Thanks, Jonzo.

Check out these gems:

I've used mini_exiftool and it works great.

hey that's a pretty cool website! although it didn't mention mini_exiftool. Still, it's the first gem browser I've seen...

How's about *exif* for the search?

I've just been taking a look at exiftool and it looks awesome! thanks for the advice
