I'm running Affinity Publisher 1.10.4 on a Mac (11.6), and use it to create pdf files for a photo album for printing. 

  • When I 'place' photos taken on an iPhone in portrait mode onto a page in Publisher, they are oriented horizontally and I have to rotate them to restore portrait mode.
  • When I 'place' photos taken on my DSLR, they have the proper orientation.
  • In Adobe Lightroom, all photos have the right orientation whatever the source.

Somehow the EXIF information is missing or lost.  Is there a way to fix this?

Will this be fixed in 1.10.5?
Placed image isn't proper orientation(from exif) in all Affinity.

Is it fixed in the 1.10.5 beta? If not, it is unlikely to be fixed in the 1.10.5 retail release.

This is an issue that's logged with our developers to look into further I've added your report to the log. For the moment images will need to be manually rotated using the Transform panel.

So is this a bug or not?

It's nonsense that images are shown in different orientations when placed and when loaded.

Pretty much by definition, if something is working as intended by the developer, then it is not a bug. That does not mean it is working as it should work. 🤪

This topic has bug ticket# afd-182. Mark might misunderstood it.
Just confirming it because I haven't gotten a response from Mark.

Hi @ashf
I believe @Mark Ingram was referring to loading in the other thread, not placing. As you noticed there's a bug report for this thread which deal with placed images specifically and that still remains open in our logs.

That topic was for both the placing bug and the metadata bug.
Mark didn't mention whether it's about either one or both.
