Is there a way to tell browsers to honor the jpeg exif orientation?

Question

I know that the automatic rotation of JPG files is disabled in browsers.

They can not enable it because it would break the layout of some websites.

Is there

Answer 1

Since Chrome 81, image EXIF orientation is respected by default. Latest Safari (13.1 as of now) is also working correctly.

Firefox hasn't fully implemented this (see Bugzilla issue #1616169).

Here's a couple test pages I found:

• https://image-orientation-test.now.sh
• https://softov.org/oria/image-orientation

As for the standard, the image-orientation property is now marked deprecated on the latest CSS Images Level 3 spec draft:

'image-orientation'
This property is deprecated, and is optional for implementations.
