+.TH exif 1 "2012-07-13" "exif 0.6.21.1" "command line front-end to libexif"
+.SH "NAME"
+exif \- shows EXIF information in JPEG files
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.BI "exif [ " "OPTION" " ] [ " "file..." " ]"
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B "exif"
+is a small command-line utility to show and change EXIF information in JPEG
+files.
+.PP
+Most digital cameras produce EXIF files, which are JPEG files with extra tags
+that contain information about the image. The
+.B "exif"
+command-line utility allows you to read EXIF information from and write EXIF
+information to those files.
+.B "exif"
+internally uses the
+.B "libexif"
+library.
+.PP
+Each input file given on the command line is acted upon in turn, using
+all the options given. Execution will be aborted immediately if one
+file is not readable or does not contain EXIF tags.
+.PP
+As EXIF tags are read, any unknown ones are discarded and known ones are
+automatically converted into the correct format, if they aren't already.
+Corrupted MakerNote tags are also removed, but no format changes are made.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.TP
+.BI "\-v, \-\-version"
+Display the
+.B exif
+version number.
+.TP
+.BI "\-i, \-\-ids"
+Show ID numbers instead of tag names.
+.TP
+.BI "\-t, \-\-tag=" "TAG"
+Select only this
+.IR "TAG" .
+.I "TAG"
+is the tag title, the short tag name, or the tag number
+(hexadecimal numbers are prefixed with 0x), from the IFD specified
+with \-\-ifd. The tag title is dependent on the current locale, whereas
+name and number are locale-independent.
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-ifd=" "IFD"
+Select a tag or tags from this
+.IR "IFD" .
+Valid IFDs are "0", "1", "EXIF", "GPS", and "Interoperability".
+Defaults to "0".
+.TP
+.BI "\-l, \-\-list\-tags"
+List all known EXIF tags and IFDs. A JPEG image must be provided, and
+those tags which appear in the file are shown with an asterisk in the
+corresponding position in the list.
+.TP
+.BI "\-|, \-\-show\-mnote"
+Show the contents of the MakerNote tag. The contents of this tag are nonstandard
+(and often undocumented) and may therefore not be recognized, or if they are
+recognized they may not necessarily be interpreted correctly.
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-remove"
+Remove the tag or (if no tag is specified) the entire IFD.
+.TP
+.BI "\-s, \-\-show\-description"
+Show description of tag. The \-\-tag option must also be given.
+.TP
+.BI "\-e, \-\-extract\-thumbnail"
+Extract the thumbnail, writing the thumbnail image to the file specified
+with \-\-output.
+.TP
+.BI "\-r, \-\-remove\-thumbnail"
+Remove the thumbnail from the image, writing the new image to the file specified
+with \-\-output.
+.TP
+.BI "-n, \-\-insert\-thumbnail=" "FILE"
+Insert
+.I "FILE"
+as thumbnail. No attempt is made to ensure that the contents of
+.I "FILE"
+are in a valid thumbnail format.
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-no-fixup"
+Do not attempt to fix EXIF specification violations when reading tags.
+When used in conjunction with \-\-create-exif, this option inhibits the
+creation of the mandatory tags.
+.B exif
+will otherwise remove illegal or unknown tags, add some mandatory tags using
+default values, and change the data type of some tags to match that required
+by the specification.
+.TP
+.BI "\-o, \-\-output=" "FILE"
+Write output image to
+.IR "FILE" .
+If this option is not given and an image file must be written, the
+name used is the same as the input file with the suffix ".modified.jpeg".
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-set\-value=" "VALUE"
+Set the data for the tag specified with \-\-tag and \-\-ifd to
+.IR "VALUE" .
+Compound values consisting of multiple components are separated with
+spaces.
+.TP
+.BI "\-c, \-\-create-exif"
+Create EXIF data if it does not exist. Mandatory tags are created with
+default values unless the \-\-no-fixup option is given.
+This option can be used instead of specifying an input file name in most
+cases, to operate on the default values of the mandatory set of EXIF tags.
+In this case, the \-\-output option has no effect and no file is written.
+.TP
+.BI "\-m, \-\-machine\-readable"
+Produce output in a machine-readable (tab-delimited) format.
+The \-\-xml-output and \-\-machine\-readable options are mutually exclusive.
+.TP
+.BI "\-w, \-\-width=" "N"
+Set the maximum width of the output to N characters (default 80). This does
+not apply to some output formats (e.g. XML).
+.TP
+.BI "\-x, \-\-xml-output"
+Produce output in an XML format (when possible).
+The \-\-xml-output and \-\-machine\-readable options are mutually exclusive.
+Note that the XML schema changes with the locale, and it sometimes produces
+invalid XML. This option is not recommended.
+.TP
+.BI "\-d, \-\-debug"
+Show debugging messages. Also, when processing a file that contains corrupted
+data, this option causes
+.B exif
+to attempt to continue processing. Normally,
+corrupted data causes an abort.
+.SS "Help options"
+.TP
+.BI "\-?, \-\-help"
+Show help message.
+.TP
+.BI "\-\-usage"
+Display brief usage message.
