I have created a new PDF from a set of scanned pages. The Enhance Scanned Pages feature in PDF Xchange does a good job of deskew, but does not notice if a page is 180 degrees "upside down". The OCR notices
It would be great to have Enhance Scanned Pages automatically rotate the upside down pages. They happen quite often if I am scanning pages from a book.
And, thanks for all of the great features you already baked in

Re: Feature Request: Automatically rotate pages when using Deskew+OCR
Hello,
Our OCR currently does not support rotated pages, in either format. If you are running OCR on an upside down page you will in all likelihood have a garbled selection of text. This is true for our Enhance Scanned Pages option as well.
We are not currently inplmenting any new features to these tools as we are looking at bringing a new OCR engine into the fold instead. When the new engine comes along, these features, which have been highly requested, will likely be some of the first to be presented after we have stabilized the basic functions.
Best Regards,

As far as I understand, the problem was eventually solved by means of the Abbyy OCR engine?

Re: Feature Request: Automatically rotate pages when using Deskew+OCR
Hello Jensen Head,
Yes - that forum topic is quite old now and the "Detect incorrect page rotation" checkbox in combination with "Fix content skew and incorrect page dotation (available in both Default and Enhanced OCR) should solve the original enquiry.
Kind regards,
Stefan
