IIRC, gimp knows lossless rotation since version 2.0. I had to use it often and avoided gimp prior to this version. You may realize the speed with which gimp rotates ... reencoding has gone :) Regards, Frank _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
