10.4: About Preview and rotated/mirrored images
Authored by: jacobolus on Dec 07, '05 05:30:13PM

GraphicConverter does lossless rotation/mirroring/cropping of jpegs (well, for cropping you need to make sure you stick to cropping to the 8x8 blocks used by the original JPEG). So you can rotate the image quickly, losslessly, in such a way that all image viewers will see the difference.

10.4: About Preview and rotated/mirrored images

Yes, I use GraphicConverter to do lossless rotations on all the rotated JPEGs imported from my digital camera. I figure it's better to rotate a picture once when I transfer it to computer, rather than having a program do it everytime I view the picture (plus, as noted above, the results are much more consistent).
