A lot of mobile phone cameras use the EXIF metadata of JPEG to indicate the orientation of the image (i.e., vertical vs horizontal, upside down, etc.). In Pharo 3 (I doubt it has changed in Pharo 4), that data is ignored. So, when you convert a photo taken from a mobile device to a form, it will probably be in the wrong orientation. This is true for both JPEGReadWriter and PluginBasedJPEGReadWriter.
Anybody got any knowledge about this? If not, I'll add it as a bug to FogBugz. Cheers, Jeff -- Jochen "Jeff" Rick, Ph.D. http://www.je77.com/ Skype ID: jochenrick
