Hi,
I'm using the code below to create thumbnails from photos. The code
works fine and thumbnails are created. However, thumbnails of vertical
photos are oriented as horizontal photos.
More info:
These photos come from a Nikon high end SLR digital camera. It's not my
camera so I have no control over how the image is taken.
If I open a vertical image in Photoshop (CS2), the image is oriented
correctly. When I try to create a thumbnail with php, the thumbnail is
always oriented incorrectly as Horizontal.
I did some further testing and tried opening the same image using
ImageMagic (on a Linux box). ImageMagic also sees the image incorrectly
as Horizontal.
There has to be some way to read the JPG file and determine if it's
meant to be a vertical or horizontal photograph. Are there any php
libraries that are capable of doing this?
Does anyone know the layout of a JPG binary well enough to tell me if
there is a specific flag set for orientation?
Thanks for all of your suggestions.
