Command line tool that permits identification of different files, as well
as extracting the metadata associated with those files. Furthermore, the
identification part of the software relies on a text database that can easily
be modified. Currently identifies about 600 file formats, and extracts
metadata from about 30 major file formats. Optionally the metadata can be saved
to a database that is compatible with 4DOS/4NT Description files so that the
metadata can be shown at command line. Among others, it extracts metadata from
the following formats: PDF, PNG, OLE (DOC), RIFF (AVI, WAVE), IFF (AIFF, ILBM),
EXE, SGML (HTML).

It also automatically detects the following embedded metadata: XMP and ID3 tags.
It maps all extracted metadata to XMP schemas (including dublincore) for easy
understanding.

Extraction of metadata stored in multiple languages is also supported. This tool can also generate simple HTML and SFV compatible reports of the
analyzed files.

This is the freeware version. The professional version also supports
saving reports to CSV files.
