Aspose.Imaging FOSS

Aspose.Imaging FOSS identifies an image file’s format and reads its basic header properties — dimensions, bit depth, and frame count — directly from the file header, without decoding a single pixel.

Key capabilities

  • Detect PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, WebP, ICO, TIFF, PSD, EMF, WMF, and DICOM from a file path, stream, or byte array.
  • Read structured ImageInfo results — Format, Width, Height, BitDepth, FrameCount — populated only when the format actually carries that data.
  • Parse DICOM headers across Implicit VR Little Endian and Explicit VR Little/Big Endian transfer syntaxes.
  • Never throws on malformed or truncated input — returns a partial result with just Format set instead of an exception.
  • Zero runtime dependencies, MIT licensed.
