SchlauFuchs Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hi, I am using a hand scanner for long receipts, but it does not always produce straight results and can cause an unwanted curvature in the output. Do you know a plugin or native procedure to straighten this up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Two options: Image Distortion - Second shape on the top row with the image right aligned on the canvas. Alternative - use Effects > Distort > Bulge (again on a large canvas, something like 2000px high). Make successive bulges to realign the receipt.

ardneh Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Using Gravity will straighten the paper, but the text will be at different angles ranging from top to bottom. If you need to correct this, select different portions of the receipt and apply different levels of correction using Vertical Skew plugin effect.
