Image EXIF Autorotate

Automatically rotates any uploaded image file according to the EXIF orientation information.

Motivation

Sometimes when you upload an image to your site it might be shown in the wrong orientation. Solutions to this issue include:

1. Manually add the autorotate image effect to every image style you have on your site.
2. Use the Original image with style module and set it up to action on every Image field on your site with the image style that includes the autorotate image effect.
3. Use this module to automatically act on every image file uploaded to your site.

How it works

The module creates default image style called "image_exif_autorotate" with just one action - "imagecache_autorotate" from the Imagecache Actions module. The module code automatically applies this image style to every new image file uploaded (it uses the hook_file_insert() to act on every file added to Drupal database). And it changes the original file you are uploading replacing it with the rotated version.
So to use this module you don't need to setup anything, you just need to enable it.

Dependencies

• EXIF Orientation - it doesn't depend on Imagecache Actions. EXIF Orientation actions on hook_file_presave(); Image EXIF Autorotate uses hook_file_insert() and acts only on new files. Image EXIF Autorotate also calls the file_save() function after rotating a file so that the information about image size, dimensions, etc. gets updated.
