  • EXIF orientation info in PNGs is not respected by browsers when using 'image-orientation: from-image'.
  • Browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) have inconsistent behavior regarding EXIF data placement in PNGs.
  • Safari respects EXIF orientation info if it appears before the image data, while Firefox and Chrome do not.
  • The issue is related to the handling of the eXIf chunk in PNGs, as defined in PNG-3 specification.
  • Bug 1682759 is expected to fix this issue.
