ABSTRACT:
A computerized method and computer readable medium for adjusting a digital image obtained from scanning a document. An application processes the digital image to discern a border portion from an image portion. The application processes the digital image to determine whether an image portion of the digital image corresponds to a target orientation. If the image portion does not correspond to a target orientation, the application adjusts the image portion to correspond to the target orientation. The application further crops the adjusted image to entirely eliminate the border portion of that image.
