NewSubfileType |
A general indication of the kind of data contained in this subfile. |
ImageWidth |

ImageLength |
The number of rows of image data. In JPEG compressed data a JPEG marker is used instead of this tag. |
BitsPerSample |
The number of bits per image component. In Exif standard each component of the image is 8 bits, so the value for this tag is 8. See also <SamplesPerPixel>. In JPEG compressed data a JPEG marker is used instead of this tag. |
Compression |
The compression scheme used for the image data. When a primary image is JPEG compressed, this designation is not necessary and is omitted. When thumbnails use JPEG compression, this tag value is set to 6. |

DocumentName |
The name of the document from which this image was scanned. |
ImageDescription |

Make |
The manufacturer of the recording equipment. This is the manufacturer of the DSC, scanner, video digitizer or other equipment that generated the image. |
Model |
The model name or model number of the equipment. This is the model name or number of the DSC, scanner, video digitizer or other equipment that generated the image. |
StripOffsets |
For each strip, the byte offset of that strip. It is recommended that this be selected so the number of strip bytes does not exceed 64 Kbytes. With JPEG compressed data this designation is not needed and is omitted. See also <RowsPerStrip> and <StripByteCounts>. |
Orientation |
The image orientation viewed in terms of rows and columns. |
SamplesPerPixel |
The number of components per pixel. Since this standard applies to RGB and YCbCr images, the value set for this tag is 3. In JPEG compressed data a JPEG marker is used instead of this tag. |
RowsPerStrip |
The number of rows per strip. This is the number of rows in the image of one strip when an image is divided into strips. With JPEG compressed data this designation is not needed and is omitted. See also <StripOffsets> and <StripByteCounts>. |
StripByteCounts |
The total number of bytes in each strip. With JPEG compressed data this designation is not needed and is omitted. |
XResolution |
The number of pixels per <ResolutionUnit> in the <ImageWidth> direction. When the image resolution is unknown, 72 [dpi] is designated. |
YResolution |
The number of pixels per <ResolutionUnit> in the <ImageLength> direction. The same value as <XResolution> is designated. |
PlanarConfiguration |
Indicates whether pixel components are recorded in a chunky or planar format. In JPEG compressed files a JPEG marker is used instead of this tag. If this field does not exist, the TIFF default of 1 (chunky) is assumed. |

This tag records the name of the camera owner, photographer or image creator. Example “Camera owner, John Smith; Photographer, Michael Brown; Image creator, Ken James” |
WhitePoint |
The chromaticity of the white point of the image. Normally this tag is not necessary, since color space is specified in the colorspace information tag <ColorSpace>. |
PrimaryChromaticities |
The chromaticity of the three primary colors of the image. Normally this tag is not necessary, since colorspace is specified in the colorspace information tag <ColorSpace>. |

Appn and COM markers should not be recorded. Compressed thumbnails must be recorded in no more than 64 Kbytes, including all other data to be recorded in APP1. |
YCbCrCoefficients |
The matrix coefficients for transformation from RGB to YCbCr image data. |
YCbCrSubSampling |
The sampling ratio of chrominance components in relation to the luminance component. In JPEG compressed data a JPEG marker is used instead of this tag. |
