Available image transformations (rotation and/or mirroring).

Values:

IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_AUTO Automatic image rotation (Default).
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_NO Do not transform the image.
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_RIGHT Rotate image to the right (clockwise).
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_DOWN Rotate image down (rotate twice).
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_LEFT Rotate image to the left (anti-clockwise).
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_FLIPPED Mirror image without rotation (mirrored around the Y-axis).
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_RIGHT_FLIPPED Mirror image, then rotate to the right.
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_DOWN_FLIPPED Mirror image, then rotate twice.
IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_LEFT_FLIPPED Mirror image, then rotate to the left.

Rotation is always carried out in 90-degree steps. The following table shows the results of the image transformation using different values.

Automatic image rotation settings (IG_REC_IMG_ROTATE_AUTO) can only be used with good quality machine-printed texts, but not with images containing 9-pin dot-matrix text or other non-machine printed text. Mirroring values (those with the suffix FLIPPED) are ignored during image pre-processing IG_REC_image_preprocess. They are available only through IG_REC_image_orient.
