Question

Is it possible to detect orientation for the input document?

Answer

FineReader Engine 12 allows you to perform automatic page orientation correction during the Preprocessing stage using the CorrectOrientation and OrientationDetectionParams Properties of the PagePreprocessingParams Object.

ImageRotation Property of the ImageDocument Object specifies rotation that was performed upon the current ImageDocument object, therefore you can check this property after the Preprocessing stage to get the original orientation of the page.

The same applies to the skew correction (CorrectSkew and CorrectSkewMode Properties of the PagePreprocessingParams Object and IsSkewCorrected and SkewAngle of the ImageDocument Object).
