NAME

edvips - edit header of a vips image file

SYNOPSIS

edvips [OPTION...] vipsfile

DESCRIPTION

edvips alters a VIPS image file's header. This is useful for setting the resolution, for example.

The options are:


  -x, --xsize=N       set Xsize to N
  -y, --ysize=N       set Ysize to N
  -b, --bands=N       set Bands to N
  -f, --format=F      set BandFmt to F (eg. IM_BANDFMT_UCHAR)
  -t, --type=T        set Type to T (eg. IM_TYPE_XYZ)
  -c, --coding=C      set Coding to C (eg. IM_CODING_LABQ)
  -X, --xres=R        set Xres to R pixels/mm
  -Y, --yres=R        set Yres to R pixels/mm
  -u, --xoffset=N     set Xoffset to N
  -v, --yoffset=N     set Yoffset to N
  -e, --setext        replace extension block with stdin

Be very careful when changing Xsize, Ysize, BandFmt or Bands. edvips does no checking!

EXAMPLES

To set the Xsize to 512 and Bands to 6:


  edvips --xsize=512 --bands=6 fred.v

or


  edvips -x 512 -b 6 fred.v

Extract the XML metadata from an image with header(1), edit it, and reattach with edvips(1).


  header -f getext fred.v | sed s/banana/pineapple/ | edvips -e fred.v

RETURN VALUE

returns 0 on success and non-zero on error.
