Depends on what type of information your are looking for. If you want dimensions and dpi, you can find it in the "resize" window. If you want the EXIF data, however, you can't view it from within Paint.net (just opening and editing the image changes the data...). To see that stuff, just right click on the file, go to properties, and click on the summary tab.

I'm not sure if the second thing is even possible...but don't quote me on that.

Images are always 32-bit BGRA in Paint.NET, and can only be "exported" to other pixel formats. There is no way to create a new image of any other pixel type.
