I do that as part of a photo indexing script...
Code: Select all
rotation=''
rotation=`identify -format "%[EXIF:Orientation]" "$f"`
rot=""
case "$rotation" in
""|"unknown") : no rotation supplied in image ;;
1) : normal camera rotation ;;
6) rot="-rotate 90" ;;
8) rot="-rotate -90" ;;
*) echo >&2 "Unknown rotation for $f \"$rotation\" -- Continuing" ;;
esac
Now I include $rot in my IM command when generating a smaller 'web' version of the photo for generally viewing, and of course for its thumbnail.

The script is a personal one, not appropriate for public consumption.
However once I get $rot (and extract comments from images) I use...
Code: Select all
echo >&2 "Generating Smaller Image..."
convert "$f" $rot -thumbnail ${nsize}x${nsize} -quality $nqual "$n"
where $f is the origina and $n is the new 'web' image
$nsize is set to 790 pixels.
The thumbnail image is basically as per the IM thumbnail examples...
Code: Select all
angle=`perl -e 'srand(); print rand() * 20 - 10'`
size=`convert "$n" -thumbnail ${tsize}x${tsize} \
-bordercolor white -border 6 \
-bordercolor grey60 -border 1 \
-background none -rotate $angle \
-background black \( +clone -shadow 60x4+4+4 \) +swap \
-background none -flatten \
-depth 8 -colors 256 -quality 95 \
-write "$t" -format "WIDTH=%w HEIGHT=%h" info:-`
thumbnail size is 100 pixels, and outputs a PNG image
If I want a simpler plain thumbnail (non-fancy) a GIF is used.
The images are only re-built if the source is newer, or a FORCE option is used.
The script then writes up the index.html with image comments, date, and generated thumbanil and so on.

Post a URL to 3-5 images that contain orientation information in the EXIF profile and we will look into supporting automatic rotation to the correct orientation.

You forgot the orientation for upsidedown, camera looking straight up
and camera looking straight down
I see these in my own camera when I take photos of documents (a quick way of scanning
or of kites and planes when I'm directly underneath. these situations do produce their own 'orentation' in many cameras.

Yes the -auto-orient option as added due to your artical!
I thought you knew
