To manually straighten a skewed page after it has been scanned:
1. Display the page in Page View.
2. Click the Straighten button on the Annotation Tool Bar.
A message box explains how to draw a reference line for straightening
the page. If you don’t want the message box to appear again, select
the checkbox.
3. Click Close.
The cursor becomes a crosshair.
4. Hold down the mouse button and drag the cursor to draw a
horizontal or vertical reference line for straightening the page. Draw
the line so that it is along the edge of the horizontal or vertical
features on the page, such as a paragraph. A small arrow on the
reference line indicates the angle that PaperPort will use to straighten
the page.
When you release the mouse button, PaperPort straightens the page
relative to your reference line.
