Can AS identify the bit depth of a file?

Hi all,

Is there any way for AppleScript to identify a file as being a 1-bit tiff while still in the finder? I know it can identify tiffs (file type), but what about bit depth?

I’d like to make a script (probably a droplet) that sifts though a folder of junk and only opens 1-bit tiffs in Photoshop 7 to performs certain tasks. If this isn’t possible, a workaround would be to open any tiff, and have PS7 immediately close the ones that aren’t 1-bit, but that’s pretty inefficient.

Thanks.
