IPTC/EXIF

IPTC, EXIF and JPEG comments all allow storing information about the image in the file itself. IPTC is often used for descriptions and keywords while EXIF information is generally added by digital cameras and contains info about the picture, like time taken, shutterspeed, aperture, etc.

EXIF information

Auto-rotate using EXIF orientation field

Many digital cameras leave save the orientation at which the picture is taken (e.g. normal, 90░ rotated clockwise) in the EXIF segment. With auto-rotate selected Arles will automatically show images with the orientation field set in the correct position.

Note: If you change this option the rotation of all images containing EXIF information will be reset.

Update EXIF orientation field when rotating

Some digital cameras do not set the EXIF orientation field and in other situations 3rd party applications fail to update the EXIF field when rotating an image. This both results in the EXIF orientation field containing incorrect information. Arles can fix this automatically for you every time you rotate an image. This correction only changes the orientation field in the EXIF segment of the image file (1 byte). The image quality is 100% maintained.
