NAME

       tiff_findskew - determine text skew angle

SYNOPSIS

       tiff_findskew [-options] TIFF_file

DESCRIPTION

       Reads  a  file  in TIFF format as input.  Writes out the skew angle (in degrees, floating-point decimal).
       The skew angle is defined as the angle by which the image must be rotated counterclockwise  to  obtain  a
       normally oriented text with horizontal lines.

OPTIONS

       -options
              So far no options are implemented. In the future, tiff_findskew might accept options.

       TIFF_file
              Name  of  a  TIFF  file  containing a black/white bitmap.  (The file should be readable by libtiff
              tools.)
