JPEG Metadata Structure

JPEG metadata structure is framed in several levels:

JPEG Level

Name Id Type Value Type Value Value Length Ignored on save
"JPEG-JFIF" ImGearFormats.JPG Tree        
JPEG marker segment levels

JPEG Marker Segment Levels

The following JPEG marker segments metadata are supported:

Segment level markers are described in the tables:

Application Marker Segment Level

There are several application marker segments whose data structure is well known. These segments are parsed and their data are passed in special format.

These marker segments are:

JFIF APP0 Segment
