Deskewing Digital Camera Images
When photographing documents with a digital camera, it may happen that the documents are shot
from an angle, which gives them a 3D effect and renders the recognition impossible.
To solve this issue, you can deskew your digital camera images:
 Open your digital camera image.
 On the Layout and Editing toolbar, click the Deskew icon.
 Drag the corners one by one in the direction of your text.
 Click Apply to deskew the image.
Tips for making digital camera images
 Always select the highest image resolution.
 Enable the macro mode of the camera to take close-ups.
 Enable the document mode of the camera (if any)
 Only use optical zoom, not digital zoom.
 Hold the camera directly above the document. Avoid photographing documents at an angle.
 Produce stable images.
 Disable the flash when photographing glossy paper.
 Avoid opening compressed camera images.
