fwiw, pdftex has support for reading image dimension that can be used in dvi mode (added as requested by ChoF, who uses pdftex mainly in dvi mode and use dvipdfmx to create pdf).

What do you mean with "reading image dimension in dvi mode"?

pdfTeX 1.40.3: ! pdfTeX error (\pdfximage): not allowed in DVI mode (\pdfoutput <= 0).

Or are you referring to the package `bmpsize'?

you got me: I said something I didn't test. actually I added \pdfximagebbox as Cho requested, but it seems that nobody has ever tested/used it, including me and Cho. Thanh
