First build with automatic dewarping

[matt]

I understand that my Formulas book (which has lots of charts and non-block text) might be an edge case that's not worth supporting. But it does seem to be presenting some challenges for ST. Here are a few examples of the wonky grids that beta6 is creating with this particular book.

Thanks again for all your efforts with this!!

I need the source files. Can't do anything without them.

The autodewarping is really impressive. This feels like a "platen killer" in the making. When testing I got wobbling on some output pages. Not as much as in Tulon's example above (in the beta6 post) but enough. In one such case I fed the outputted tif back into Scan Tailor for a second round (including dewarping) and that removed the wobble and straightened things out!

I've updated my previous post with copies of the source images. Thanks for looking into it!

Matt, I think you are getting such poor results because you aren't fixing incorrectly detected content boxes.

Anyway, here comes beta7: http://depositfiles.com/files/f3w0nsol3
This one finds more text lines and chooses a pair of representative lines better.

Cool, I'm looking forward to trying it out. Are those changes available via git? (As I'm on a Mac I've been following the developments there). The last few changesets I see there are

I forgot to push my commits - just did it now.

I've got a crash report from beta7 which I can't reproduce. I'll need the source image and probably the project file.

I just started testing dewarping today, with beta7. The auto function did a good job to the extent it applied itself to the page, but it missed a big chunk of the page.

"The extension scantailor is not allowed," so here is a zip file containing the project and other files.

I went back and switched to Mixed mode. As a result, the warped chess diagram was auto-selected perfectly as a Picture Zone. Next, I looked at the Dewarping tab, which was unchanged. Following is an updated zip file containing the updated (i.e. Mixed) project and other files.
