    Help, windows shows all pictures in landscape mode.. anyone?

    Not sure if I can explain this..

    When I browse pictures in windows it shows them all in landscape mode, so all the portraits is lying down.. if I open one of the pictures in firefox it still lays down (which is incorrect)

    But if I open this picture in photoshop it is shown correctly, which tells me that there is info somewhere telling the system how the picture must turn..

    But.. I dont want my surfers to see these pictures lying down.. and I have like 50.000 of them.. mixed in with correct landscape ones.. so I am not going to manually rotate them

    (photoshop bridge shows all pictures correctly when browsing them as thumbs)

    What can I do?

      Not sure I understand.

      In Windows Explorer (?) when you view a full size picture it is landscape and shouldn't be.

      Likewise in Firefox.

      But in Photoshop it's okay.

      Right?

      If so,

      1. Are these only pictures you put up that are doing this or are they *all* photos?
      2. What about IE, chromium and other browsers?

      If only yours I'd guess when you are converting or otherwise publishing them you have your application set to force landscape mode. Are you sure it's really the same version of the photo you are viewing in photoshop as opposed to a different version not optimized/converted for the web?

        IrfanView took care of this like a charm in batch mode

        It seems like windows ignores the Exif information in image files

          The pic file itself holds the orientation info and programs like PS or ACDSee read that part of those files. Rather than trying to explain this, I will put it to you this way:

          Stop opening the raw photos in your browser. You're not going to load them to your server like that anyway so who cares how your browser handles them?

          Edit your pics, watermark them, etc, and when you save them, they will be in the right direction assuming you used a program that reads the full EXIF info.
