Re: FOTOWARE ... FOTOSTATION
I didn't even know that FotoStation did this until now. Usually I have to rely on reverse engineering to determine the format of information like this.

I just downloaded a trial version of Fotostation, and it looks like the crop information is in the last 46 bytes of the trailer (this 46-byte block begins and ends with the byte sequence a1 b2 c3 d4).

Just doing a bit of quick testing, here is what I found:

offset 00: start signature (a1 b2 c3 d4) offset 04: image width offset 08: image height offset 0c: ? (00 00 00 03) offset 10: ? (but changes with crop area) offset 14: counterclockwise rotation angle * 100 deg offset 18: ? (11 22 22 11) offset 1c: top crop coordinate in inches offset 20: left crop coordinate in inches offset 24: right crop coordinate in inches offset 28: bottom crop coordinate in inches offset 2c: ? (00 00 00 00) offset 30: ? (00 00 00 00) offset 34: ? (00 02) offset 36: ? (00 00) offset 38: ? (00 3a) offset 3a: end signature (a1 b2 c3 d4)
