My problem is that we have a huge library of images that have been created using ADOBE Photoshop. Each image has been saved with a range of applicable keywords. If I open up the images in say Wordpad I can physically see the keywords listed as text

So the problem is that when I use the System.Drawing.Imaging.PropertyItem it returns a collection of these items but the keywords do not seem to be included

Has anybody had any experience of this problem

Thanks in advanc

Andy

Can you post a small image, no more than 100*100 with some key-words in and
I'll see if I can find the solution.

The product I use, LEADTOOLS, can be used to load JPEG images, and read the
comments stored inside them.

Post an image, and I'll see if I can read the metadata.
