According to the docs rotate & transform can both be used and should do the same in my case - but they are not. rotimg = img.transpose(Image.ROTATE_270) print img.getbbox() print rotimg.getbbox() gives (0, 0, 1280, 1024) (0, 0, 1024, 1280) while rotimg = img.rotate(270, 0, 1) print img.getbbox() print rotimg.getbbox() gives (0, 0, 1280, 1024) (1, 1, 1025, 1281) Neither one produces good output when the compression is applied. Don't think it's related to fax standards - it's proprietary (E-Ink Tile) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
