Free SwapNeat Tools
SwapNeat offers three tools that provide access to embedded metadata for users and developers.
SwapNeat Metadata Shell Extensions - Windows Explorer file property pages
The free SwapNeat Shell Extensions (which are also bundled with SwapNeat Metadata Studio) provide access to the metadata embedded in your photo, music, and video files, right from Windows Explorer.
SwapNeat Metadata Extraction Tool (SNTool) - a command-line utility
SNTool provides enthusiasts and developers with a command-line utility that will extract all the metadata from files. It can be launched from DOS Batch file scripts, or called from other scripts etc.
TiffTran - An open source TIFF file transformation tool
tifftran was developed by SwapNeat Inc. to process TIFF images losslessly, specifically for lossless rotation. It also preserves metadata in the source file.
We will be establishing a SourceForge project and making the code available there.
