--- Comment #11 from Anselm Lingnau <anselm+...@anselms.net> --- That's nice but is not what the current Exif standard document says. As long as we don't have an actual standards-level document that says that the APP1 section doesn't have to come immediately after the SOI, the libjpeg-turbo people are unlikely to budge (and they're technically correct, which as we all know is the best kind of correct). They are opposed to the “robustness principle”, which the idea of deliberately writing a file that doesn't conform to the standard in order to accommodate “old JFIF readers” is all about, and it is not an unreasonable position to take if you're a purist rather than a pragmatist, and believe that bugs should be fixed in the software that actually has the bug, rather than worked around elsewhere. In any case you should fix the broken Exif orientation marker in the exported attachment image files, because that's wrong no matter what the situation is about APP0 and APP1, and it bites especially those people with software that DOES look for APP1 in places other than immediately after the SOI. Getting that right would solve much of the original problem already. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
