    <pre> Hello,

    In an effort to be as efficient as possible when it comes to image metadata creation and gathering, I am looking into server-based (Unix/Solaris) programs which can be used to read and export the entire contents of tiff header tags. I've reviewed a handful of programs and it seems that tiffdump is the most suited to the task. Does anyone have experience using this program for similar or related purposes? Or can someone recommend another program or process that takes advantage of already-existing metadata, thus saving the time required to key it in?

    Thank you in advance for any responses.

    Hannah Frost
