Is there a method or can you refer to me to some development on
getting the following information from an Image at each PathPoint?

PathPoint
AnchorPointX
AnchorPointY
LeftDirectionX
LeftDirectionY
RightDirectionX
RightDirectionY

I thank you

Thank you for your reply.
The question could be like this:

For a JPEG with ADOBE Embeded Bezier Curve PathPoints Metadata,
How could I extract these Pathpoints.

Thanks for your help

I do not know for sure as I don't have much experience with paths, but check the IM verbose information and see if the path meta data is there.

identify -verbose image

The next question is what do you want to do with it?

If you just want the data, then use some textual means of extracting that data from the verbose information, such sed on unix.

If you want to use it for masking, then see
