Capturing Images from Books

Capturing an image from a book can cause two kinds of distortions; binding curvature along the spine of the book, and cylindrical curvature in the page area. Additional distortion can also be caused by not holding the camera parallel to the surface of the page. TopOCR's advanced "Document Image Dewarping" can usually remove these distortions with a simple mouse-click.
