how to output image properties?

[nighttime]

I didn't know where exactly to put this, but, oh well. I'm trying to automate updates for my website with a shell script (more like a couple of scripts) from HTML formatting to FTP, everything so I just have to scan a drawing, edit it, type some text and push a button.

Anyway... to automate the proper HTML editing I need a command that will output the width and height of an image, but I haven't found it so far. Is there some utility I can get from synaptic?

Thanks in advance.

nighttime,

You may want to try/install the ImageMagick package. It has a lot of utilities for dealing with, converting, identifying etc images.

If I remember correctly one of the included utilities (identify) will give you resolution and other various bits of information for any given image(s).

Hope this helps. Good luck with your project!
