Andreas,

tiffinfo is a commandline utility which produces text output.  It is
generally available with libtiff.  In Debian/Ubuntu I think it is the
"libtiff-tools" package.  The tools are also available in OSGeo4W as
the libtiff-bin package.

You can also quite easily just build it locally from source as part of
the normal libtiff build.  After a build it will be in the libtiff/tools
directory (no need to actually do an install to run it).

Then just run it against the appropriate files and redirect the output
to a text file or cut and paste.

Best regards,
