Leadtools Namespace : RasterTagMetadata Class
Extends the RasterMetadata class to provide functionality for dealing with tag metadata stored within various image file formats.

Remarks

The TIFF file formats support a number of comments that are saved and loaded using predefined tags.

If the comments do not meet your needs, you can define your own tag for saving additional non-raster data in a TIFF file. For example, you may want to define a tag to save annotations.

The TIFF 6.0 Specification sets aside a range of private tags that developers can define. To avoid conflicts with files created by other developers, you can register your tag by contacting Adobe Developer Relations. The E-Mail address posted on The Unofficial TIFF Home Page is gapdevsup@adobe.com.

Some restrictions apply to this function if you use an IFD to indicate to which page to write the metadata. See the Loading And Saving Large TIFF Files topic for more information.

Example

This example will save then load some tags to/from a tif file.
