nikolaszimmermann has just labeled an issue for https://github.com/w3c/svgwg as "Agenda+": == <Image> auto-rotation due to 'Orientation' attribute in EXIF Data == Problem : There's no attribute in SVG to control if the imported image be auto-rotated as per its EXIF data. I created a SVG which has an image embedded in it. When i open it in browser its orientation is Portrait, while in InkScape or OpenOffice Text the orientation automatically changes to Landscape. I am not knowledgeable about the Specification as a whole. Hence would request someone to fill-up any gaps here. Found an answer here : stackoverflow.com/questions/40081858/why-is-image-rotated-in-svg Similar discussion on HTML Spec : https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/4495 See https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/819 -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
