I attach a sample of the worst warped pages. What would you do? I get lost at teh number of options thr Gimp offers...
Oh... OK, now I see, big deformation here...
Did you tried with the Cage Transform tool, little block by little block at a time? It's a bit cumbersome -> takes some time, but you get to have the full view on the canvas, there is also an advantage to this method is to add Guides, thus you can refer to the guides to straighten your text.
La documentacion (en español
) --> https://docs.gimp.org/es/gimp-tool-cage.html Or the G'MIC, Filters > G'MIC_Qt > Deformations > Warp [Interactive]? It's quite nice and faster than the Cage Transform as you can add points/nodes live anywhere on the whole image (best directly on the text or surrounding to affect those parts) -> with a live preview (you can increase the window size)
Or I would use Krita with its Mesh transform tool, because the "Mesh transform" is very user friendly.
Or you can try the Ofnuts plugin flatten cylinder on the right side of the scan and manually do the left side, or ask Ofnuts if he does not have something similar for this case, that would take NO TIME to do it
@ Ofnuts that would be a great idea to have an "ofn flatten book" plugin
