## JPEG AdobeCM Tags

The APP13 "Adobe_CM" segment presumably contains color management information, but the meaning of the data is currently unknown. If anyone has an idea about what this means, please let me know.

> Index2 | Tag Name | Writable | Values / Notes
> --- | --- | --- | ---
> 0 | AdobeCMType | no |

## JPEG Adobe Tags

The APP14 "Adobe" segment stores image encoding information for DCT filters. This segment may be copied or deleted as a block using the Extra "Adobe" tag, but note that it is not deleted by default when deleting all metadata because it may affect the appearance of the image.

> Index2 | Tag Name | Writable | Values / Notes
> --- | --- | --- | ---
> 0 | DCTEncodeVersion | no |
> 1 | APP14Flags0 | no | 0x0 = (none) Bit 15 = Encoded with Blend=1 downsampling
> 2 | APP14Flags1 | no | 0x0 = (none)
> 3 | ColorTransform | no | 0 = Unknown (RGB or CMYK) 1 = YCbCr 2 = YCCK

## JPEG GraphConv Tags

APP15 is used by GraphicConverter to store JPEG quality.

> 'Q' | Quality | no |

## JPEG SOF Tags

This information is extracted from the JPEG Start Of Frame segment.
