++.SH EXIF FILES
++The EXIF variety of JPEG files, which are often produced by digital cameras,
++are recognized by jpegtran as EXIF files (i.e. not as JFIF, the
++usual variety of JPEG files). If the input file is recognized as EXIF (i.e.,
++there is an EXIF marker and no JFIF marker) the '-copy exif' option is
++automatically turned on if '-copy comments', or no '-copy' option, was
++specified. Thus, unless '-copy none' is specified an EXIF file is kept as EXIF
++and not converted to JFIF.
++.PP
++If a geometrical transformation is applied (e.g., rotate, transpose) the EXIF
++width and height fields are set to the width and height of the output
++image. Furthermore, the orientation field is reset to one, meaning tha the
++orientation of the output image is upright (i.e. normal).
++.PP
++Note that an explicitely given '-copy exif' option will output an EXIF file if
++the input is an EXIF file that was saved as JFIF, and that the EXIF marker is
++still present. This option is useful for recovering EXIF files that where
++converted to JFIF by a non EXIF-aware software. Note however, that the data in
++the EXIF marker is not validated, unless a geometrical transformation is
++applied.
