Rotation without loss of information?

[alphabravo]

Hello,

I have to rotate an already edited photo.
My idea is to take this already edited photo, to rotate it, crop it and save it.
After doing this I realized that the photo have lose the sharpness. I suppose that the photo information also were loosing.
For that reason I am really not sure if my method would be the right one.
On the other hand a compleatly new editing is too stressfull. So I would prefer an easy way, but without loss of photo information.
Any suggestions?

Best regards,
Anto

Anto, everything except starting from the beginning will result in a quality reduction. If you seriously want to get your pictures into PP.net you have no other option.


Best wishes,

Frank,
Thank you for your answer.

If you rotate a picture and crop it, the size will change. So if you made the original at 1024x683 it could end up a bit too small to upload.

and off course you loose quality by saving (compressing) it again as JPEG.
