Using the perspective document scanner
Enter the corners in clockwise order: top-left, top-right, bottom-right and bottom-left. A projective transform maps that outline to your chosen output rectangle. The result is an image, not OCR text or a PDF.
A worked example
The sample corners 0,0; 639,0; 639,359; 0,359 describe the whole example and keep it rectangular at 640 × 360.
Before you use the result
Corners are set manually; no edge detection or text recognition is performed. Output is limited to two million pixels for responsive local processing. Choose dimensions that match the document’s proportions.
