+[\fIswitches\fR] \fIjpegfile\fR
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.
+This is a utility program to get and set the Exif Orientation Tag.
+It can be used together with jpegtran in scripts for automatic
+orientation correction of digital camera pictures.
+.PP
+The Exif orientation value gives the orientation of the camera
+relative to the scene when the image was captured. The relation
+of the '0th row' and '0th column' to visual position is shown as
+below.

+ 2 | top | right side

+ 4 | bottom | left side
+ 5 | left side | top
+ 6 | right side | top
+ 7 | right side | bottom
+ 8 | left side | bottom

+tagged correctly and displayed by a program that ignores the orientation
