NAME
       pngcheck - Test PNG image files for corruption, display size, type, compression info


SYNOPSIS
         pngcheck [-vqt7f] file.png [file.png [...]]
         pngcheck [-vqt7f] file.mng [file.mng [...]]
         pngcheck -{sx}[vqt7f] file-containing-PNGs...

         Can be used in pipe:

         ... | pngcheck [-sx][vqt7f]


OPTIONS
       -7  Print contents of text chunks, escape chars >=128 (for 7-bit terminals).

       -f  Force continuation even after major errors.

       -p  Display contents of PLTE, tRNS, hIST, sPLT and PPLT (can be used with -q).

       -q  Test quietly (only output errors).

       -s  Search for PNGs within another file.

       -t  Display contents of tEXt chunks (can be used with -q).

       -v  test verbosely (print most chunk data).

       -x  Search for PNGs and extract them when found.


DESCRIPTION
       pngcheck is the official PNG tester and debugger. Originally designed simply to test the CRCs within a
       PNG image file (e.g., to check for ASCII rather than binary transfer), it has been extended to check and
       optionally print almost all the information about a PNG image and to verify that it conforms to the PNG
       specification. It also includes partial support for MNG animations.

       It can dump the chunk-level information in the image in human-readable form. For example, it can be used
       to print the basic stats about an image (dimensions, bit depth, etc.); to list the color and transparency
       info in its palette; or to extract the embedded text annotations. All PNG and JNG chunks are supported,
       plus almost all MNG chunks (everything but PAST, DISC, tERm, DROP, DBYK, and ORDR). This is a command-
       line program with batch capabilities (e.g., pngcheck *.png).


ENVIRONMENT
       None.
