Frequently Asked Question (FAQs)
How many times can I rotate an image before losing quality?
With lossless formats (PNG, TIFF) - unlimited. With JPEG - each rotation compounds quality loss.
Why does my rotated image look blurry?
This happens when using simple interpolation. Use bicubic or Lanczos methods for better results.
What's the difference between rotating and flipping?
Rotation turns the image around its center, while flipping creates a mirror image.
How do I rotate an image without changing its dimensions?
Use canvas rotation which adds background, not crop rotation.
Can rotation affect image metadata?
Yes, some tools strip EXIF data during rotation. Use professional software to preserve it.
