# Step 3: Getting image properties

Being sure we're dealing with an image file that contains valid image data, we can get the dimensions, color depth and horizontal and vertical resolutions of the image. To get the image properties directly from an image file, we use the command QPx_GetImageFileInfo:

``Get information about the image` `C_LONGINT``($width;$height) `Width and height` `C_LONGINT``($depth) `Color depth` `C_LONGINT``($hRes;$vRes) `Resolution` `$error:=QPx_GetImageFileInfo($imagePath;$width;$height;$depth;$hRes;$vRes)` `If``($error=qpx_noErr)` `...` `End if`
