Photoshop Image Resource Metadata Structure

Adobe Photoshop files can contain data which is placed in additional resources blocks. These resources are used to store non-pixel data associated with images. ImageGear reads this data into the metadata blocks which is attached to ImGearDocument and ImGearPage.

Adobe Photoshop metadata structure is framed in several levels:

PhotoshopResources Level

This level can contain arbitrary number of PhotoshopImageResource subtrees:

Name Id Type Value Type Value Value Length Ignored on save
PhotoshopImageResource <Res. Id> Tree N/A N/A N/A N/A
Or in case the data is parsed
