Lossy image Vs Lossless

Post by amsteph »

Hello,

I am calling the rotate method on an image (TIF file). When I rotate the image, will it cause any image loss? Will there be any quality degradition afte the rotaing image and saving it again as a TIF file.



Thanks,
Antony

No. TIFF is a lossless image format (unless you use JPEG compression).
