Detecting the Orientation of Originals

In this block, the orientation of text data is checked to identify the orientation of an original so
that reduced page composition may take place in the correct orientation regardless of the orienta-
tion of each original in the ADF.
All image data is
read, and text
areas are
extracted.
Image data is subjected to binary
processing to speed up processing.
