How OpenFileTools processes it
Local processing, explicit choices.
OpenFileTools uses the shared browser renderer to decode once, transform and resize in one final render, and encode once.

Rotate left, right, or 180 degrees
A left or right 90° turn swaps width and height before rendering so the image is not clipped. A 180° turn keeps the original canvas dimensions.
EXIF orientation and deliberate rotation
Camera EXIF orientation tells a browser how the stored pixels should first be displayed. This tool rotates that browser-decoded visual image, so the orientation is not applied twice and your selected turn remains a separate deliberate edit.
Questions, answered.
Does a 90° turn swap dimensions?
Yes.
Can I rotate to an arbitrary angle?
Not in this phase.
How is EXIF orientation handled?
The shared engine uses the browser-decoded visual orientation and does not apply it twice.
Is rotation local?
Yes. It stays in your browser.
