## BMP Tags

There really isn't much meta information in a BMP file as such, just a bit of image related information.

> Index1 | Tag Name | Writable | Values / Notes
> --- | --- | --- | ---
> 0 | BMPVersion | no | (this is actually the size of the BMP header, but used to determine the BMP version) 40 = Windows V3 68 = AVI BMP structure? 108 = Windows V4 124 = Windows V5
> 4 | ImageWidth | no |
> 8 | ImageHeight | no |
> 12 | Planes | no |
> 14 | BitDepth | no |

> 16

> Compression

> no

> 0 = None 1 = 8-Bit RLE 2 = 4-Bit RLE |  | 3 = Bitfields 4 = JPEG 5 = PNG

> 20 | ImageLength | no |
> 24 | PixelsPerMeterX | no |
> 28 | PixelsPerMeterY | no |
> 32 | NumColors | no |
> 36 | NumImportantColors | no |
> 40 | RedMask | no |
> 44 | GreenMask | no |
> 48 | BlueMask | no |
> 52 | AlphaMask | no |

> 56

> ColorSpace

> no

> 0 = Calibrated RGB 1 = Device RGB 2 = Device CMYK 'LINK' = Linked Color Profile 'MBED' = Embedded Color Profile 'Win ' = Windows Color Space 'sRGB' = sRGB

> 60 | RedEndpoint | no |
> 72 | GreenEndpoint | no |
> 84 | BlueEndpoint | no |
> 96 | GammaRed | no |
> 100 | GammaGreen | no |
> 104 | GammaBlue | no |
> 108 | RenderingIntent | no | 1 = Graphic (LCS_GM_BUSINESS) 2 = Proof (LCS_GM_GRAPHICS) 4 = Picture (LCS_GM_IMAGES) 8 = Absolute Colorimetric (LCS_GM_ABS_COLORIMETRIC)
> 112 | ProfileDataOffset | no |
> 116 | ProfileSize | no |

## BMP OS2 Tags

Information extracted from OS/2-format BMP images.

> Index1 | Tag Name | Writable | Values / Notes
> --- | --- | --- | ---
> 0 | BMPVersion | no | (again, the header size is used to determine the BMP version) 12 = OS/2 V1 64 = OS/2 V2
> 4 | ImageWidth | no |
> 6 | ImageHeight | no |
> 8 | Planes | no |
> 10 | BitDepth | no |

## BMP Extra Tags

Extra information extracted from some BMP images.

> Tag Name | Writable | Values / Notes
> --- | --- | ---
> EmbeddedJPG | no |
> EmbeddedPNG | no |
> ICC_Profile | - | --> ICC_Profile Tags
> LinkedProfileName | no |
