I have exported a Revit 2015 model to dwfx to submit for review, but for some reason the dwfx has rotated my custom materials 90 degrees. Everything looks correct in revit, but upon opening with Design Review, the custom materials are all rotated 90. Out of the box materials seem to be fine, just the custom ones are rotated. Would I fix this in Revit or Design Review? I have attached an image which shows my horizontal siding and standing seam roof materials rotated. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you rotate the material in the project or did you rotate the jpg of the material in the material definition?

They were both rotated in the material definition. Should I save a new version of each png/jpg that has them rotated properly prior to loading them as a material? Thanks for responding

Rotating the image may be the cause of your problem.  Try doing what you proposed and let us know what happens.
