free drag-corner crop feature

Post by arolat »

hello. i was wondering if there was a feature where you could drag the corners freely like in camscanner or onelens. i generally use scanned books and my pages tend to be tilted. i use the drag-corner crop mode to straighten the sentences horizontally. ive tried using crop, bleed, art, trim boxes but i couldnt see any difference. thanks in advance.

Hello arolat,

You will need to rotate the page first to straighten it and can then do the crop.

Or you can try to use the OCR engine and select to "Detect skew of page content" and then "fix content skew" further down in the same dialogue:
