How to Batch Rotate Hundreds of photos on Mac?
The photo orientations flag stores in photo exif data, and it has different values, representing each rotation of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees. We can use Photo Exifer to batch edit the orientation flag in photo exif data. Download and install Photo Exifer application on Mac.
Run Photo Exifer application, and import photos into Photo Exifer, and select photos in Photo Exifer, clic Edit Exif data button, find the value of orientation flag under MORE CAMERA INFO tab.
The photo orientation tag has four numbers: [1] =0°, [ 3 ]=180°, [ 6 ]=+90°, [ 8 ]=+270°, -90°, so you can change the orientation value to 1 or 3 or 6 or 8, and click Apply button.
You can open the changed photo with Preview application to view the photo orientation tag , go to Tools file menu -> Show Inspector -> General -> Orientation.
