We are using a cannon eos-1da mark 2 camera. This camera writes rotation data to the jpeg file so when it is open in photoshop the orientation is correct. When the image is pulled into quark the rotation is 90 degrees off. Is there an extension that will read this rotation data?
 
Why don't do you save the Images as .tif's in Photoshop before you bring them into Quark, that way the rotation will be correct and you would have to make adjustements to the images anyway.

It's also not good practice to bring in Jpegs into you page layout program.

I'd go with Marcus' suggestion.

But if you really want to continue to directly import the JPEGS you could try this.

Open Quark.
With no document open double click the picture box tool.
This lets you apply default settings to the tool.
Edit the setting so there is a 90 degree rotation applied as default.

Alternately you could create a box with a rotation applied and store it in a library. Then when you need to import one of these images you could drag the box from your library.
