The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com

I am working on project that requires me scan a large number of documents
at 24 bit color.

When scanning these documents many of the pages are becoming skewed.

Because the images are color, rather than bi-tonal, the deskewing tools on
my scan station don't work.

I am saving these files out to pdf & putting them through an OCR process to
create a pdf w/image+text. The OCR process also does not correct the skew.

Does anyone know of any tools that will allow me to automatically deskew
these pages?

Thanks,
Jeff Campbell

Two important questions come to mind...

What application are you using for scanning?
What scanner (make and model) are you using?
