I'm using jpegtran to rotate my images, but it seems to be doing some weird stuff. The same code/logic worked on my other server. Here is a test case I've done:

test.jpg is the original image, then I run:

jpegtran -rotate 90 test1.jpg > test2.jpg.tmp
mv test2.jpg.tmp test2.jpg
jpegtran -rotate 90 test2.jpg > test3.jpg.tmp
mv test3.jpg.tmp test3.jpg

test.jpg:

test1.jpg

test2.jpg

test2.jpg (first rotation)

test3.jpg:

test3.jpg (2nd rotation)

As you should be able to see, there are weird borders on it (almost like shadows on another part of the image):

What would cause this, and how can I get around it?

The OLD server shows:

...and the NEW server shows:

Typically, no sooner had I written the question out and posted it, I found the solution :)

http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=21341#p87099

Basically, to add "-trim" to the command - so it looks like:

jpegtran -rotate 90 -trim test1.jpg > test2.jpg.tmp
mv test2.jpg.tmp test2.jpg
jpegtran -rotate 90 -trim test2.jpg > test3.jpg.tmp
mv test3.jpg.tmp test3.jpg

I've just tried this out, and it works as expected :) Thought I would post it here in case anyone else comes across this!
