Edge Fixing
Yes or No
Automatic correction of the document edges if the paper edges are damaged.
For example, if a paper's corner is ripped off due to a staple, then this edge-fixing feature will
produce a fake corner for this paper (it fills in the missing parts with white)
WARNING:
Side effect: Edge Fixing may also hide some parts of a picture in the document because
the black color is also detected as a zone to be hidden. Cf. Known limitations
