I *think* that a lossless rotation of 90 degrees is accomplished by reordering the matrix containing the blocks of pixel values (from rows to columns, etc.). If that's true, it's obvious that it won't work for arbitrary angles. Isaac

Erik would "have to" to get around his problem if he chooses not to fix it or is unable to do so. The rest of us can simply Save or Save As, since the question isn't whether that works but why it does not work specifically for him. -- Favorite yoga position: Rosh hashavasana, the high holy pose Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi> |
