1. [ID-4216061]Incorrect re-linking of image files with rotation metadata

   This bug occurs in all versions of InDesign.

   InDesign reflects the EXIF orientation in the transform panel when an image file is placed. However, under the following conditions, the result of relinking will be incorrect.

   • The image file is rotated 90 degrees with EXIF orientation.
   • In the transform panel, the vertical and horizontal percentage values are different.

   Image files taken with an iPhone often retain the EXIF orientation rotation. If such a file is placed in indd by the client and the vertical and horizontal percentage values are different, there will be a problem that will cause drastic changes in relinking.

   The background of this trouble is the specification that Photoshop always saves with EXIF orientation set to 1. This is the correct specification. I think it should be fixed on the InDesign side.

   Japanese translation:
   「回転メタデータ付き画像ファイルの再リンクが不正確」

   この不具合はInDesignの全バージョンで発生します。

   InDesignは画像ファイルが配置されると、Exif情報のOrientationを変形パネルに反映します。しかし以下の条件では、再リンクした結果が不正確になってしまいます。

   1. 画像ファイルがOrientationで90度回転されている。
   2. 変形パネルで縦と横のパーセント値が異なっている。

   iPhoneで撮影された画像ファイルは、多くの場合、Exif Orientationの回転を保持します。クライアントがこのようなファイルをinddに配置し、縦と横のパーセント値が異なっていると、再リンクで大きな変化が発生してしまいます。

   このトラブルの背景にあるのは、Photoshopが常にEXIF orientationを1にして保存する仕様です。これは正しい仕様です。私はInDesign側で直されるべきだと考えます。

   To identify the cause of this issue, we started our investigation with the aim to resolve it. You might have also received an email from us seeking more details to help in our investigation.

   We’ve concluded our investigation and came up with the following: Either the issue is fixed in the latest release of InDesign or the issue was intermittent at the time of its reporting and is not reproducible now.

   We recommend you upgrade to the latest version of InDesign 2025(v20.0.0.095) as it is more robust and contains a lot of bug fixes.

   We seek your support in our continual effort to improve InDesign.
