Processed image is rotated from portrait to landscape

[zadam]

Expected Behavior

Image should preserve the original portrait orientation.

Current Behavior

Code:

const image = await jimp.read(buffer);

const processed = await image.getBufferAsync(jimp.MIME_JPEG);

Will change the orientation from portrait to landscape for this image: IMG_5029.zip

I have the same issue too. Did you ever figure out why?

[hipstersmoothie]

my guess would be exif metadata isn't being re-encded. PRs welcome!

@hipstersmoothie adder a PR trying to fix this issue #1247 , but seems like modifying the exif data also impact on the difference would appreciate an early review

[bobzel]

Is there a reasonably straightforward workaround? I moved to Jimp because of all the installation dependencies of using Sharp. However, sharp handled image orientations correctly and I don't have a good solution for Jimp.
