Deskew PDF: questions and answers

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The PDF is opened and changed by code running in your own browser tab. The page is locked so it cannot send data to any server, and nothing is kept once you close the tab.

How does it know how far to turn a page?

It finds the angle at which the lines of text line up most sharply, up to 8° either way. Pages tilted less than a third of a degree are left as they are.

Does the quality drop?

No. The page is turned as it is, without being redrawn, so text and pictures stay exactly as sharp as before.
