Skew Correction NOTE  Skew correction is designed to be used with line drawings or other 
documents which have clearly defined axes. Grayscale images may 
not respond to Skew Correction. The skew in the retrieved image 
should be 5
°
 or less. 
The Skew Correction feature allows you to correct skew which may 
have occurred in scanning or which may be due to skewed printing 
of the scanned original. Right clicking the [Skew Correction] item in 
the [Service Area] and then selecting [Properties] will display the 
[Skew Correction Properties] dialog box (Fig. 4). Here you may 
choose between an Auto Correction mode or you may specify an 
exact correction angle.
