.. _What-does-it-do:

What does it do?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This extension offers five metadata extraction services to gather
metadata that is stored within files uploaded to a TYPO3 installation
using the extension Digital Asset Management (DAM):

- tx\_svmetaextract\_sv1: Extracts IPTC data from image files using PHP
  function “getimagesize” and “iptcparse”.

- tx\_svmetaextract\_sv2: Extracts EXIF data from image files using PHP
  function “exif\_read\_data”.

- tx\_svmetaextract\_sv3: Extracts EXIF data from image files using
  third-party library “exiftags”.

- tx\_svmetaextract\_sv4: Extracts EXIF/IPTC/XMP data from image, video
  and audio files using third-party library “exiftool”.

- tx\_svmetaextract\_sv5: Extracts metadata from PDF files using third-
  party library “pdfinfo”.

Once the extension is installed, files that are being indexed in DAM
are passed to the service with highest quality and priority and
metadata is extracted and written to the DAM record.

Screenshots
^^^^^^^^^^^

The extension has no user interface. But since it depends on PHP
functions and third-party libraries, you can check the service
availability in the Reports > Installed services module in the TYPO3
backend.
