Deskew the PDF image

Post by compassguy »

I have been using your Viewer for about a year and love it. It beats Adobe hands down.

Have you given any consideration to adding a Deskew function to the Viewer? I have that feature in Paperport, but in order to use it, I have to create a separate file in Viewer of the page that is skewed, import it into Paperport, deskew it, save it, and insert it back into the original document - a tedious task. Having it in Viewer would be a real bonus!

Hello compassguy,

While deskewing PDF pages might not be generally an easy task, whenspeaking of images, and creating PDF files from images - we are already considering this, and deskewing is part of the OCR engine we are building, so it might be also added at a later point in the Viewer itself - e.g. when inserting a new page from an image file.

I am not making any promises at this time, but it is a possibility I will pass to the dev guys for investigation.

Best,
Stefan
