Photographs follow the preserved Master v7 registration sequence. One photograph may show a cover, a spread, associated objects or several pages; these are photographic records, not a certified count of printed pages.
Whole photographs retain their proportions and documentary backgrounds. Recorded camera/EXIF orientation is respected; reviewed display rotations and the Rotate control do not change the source file.
