     sips -- scriptable image processing system.

SYNOPSIS
     sips [image-query-functions] imagefile ...
     sips [profile-query-functions] profile ...
     sips [image-modification-functions] imagefile ... [--out result-file-or-dir]
     sips [profile-modification-functions] profile ... [--out result-file-or-dir]

DESCRIPTION
     This tool is used to query or modify raster image files and ColorSync ICC profiles.  Its functionality
     can also be used through the "Image Events" AppleScript suite.

FUNCTIONS
     Profile query functions:

     -g key
     --getProperty key
           Output the property value for key to stdout.

     -X tag tagFile
     --extractTag tag tagFile
           Write a profile tag element to tagFile.

     -v
     --verify
           Verify any profile problems and log output to stdout.

           Set a property value for key to value.

     -d key
     --deleteProperty key
           Remove a property value for key.

     --deleteTag tag
           Remove the tag element from a profile.

     --copyTag srcTag dstTag
           Copy the srcTag element of a profile to dstTag.

     --loadTag tag tagFile
           Set the tag element of a profile to the contents of tagFile.

     --repair

     -m profile
     --matchTo profile
           Color match image to profile.

     -M profile intent
     --matchToWithIntent profile intent

           Crop image to fit specified size.

     -p pixelsH pixelsW
     --padToHeightWidth pixelsH pixelsW
           Pad image with pixels to fit specified size.

     -z pixelsH pixelsW
     --resampleHeightWidth pixelsH pixelsW
