## About

## What it does
PDF Deskewer straightens tilted PDF pages so scanned documents are easier to read and process. Send one or more PDF files and get back queued deskew jobs with job IDs, filenames, status, and progress.

Use it when scans come in at a slight angle and you need cleaner pages for archiving, review, or downstream document workflows. The service is built around asynchronous processing: create a job, check its status with the job ID, and download the finished PDF when it is done.

You can also track multiple jobs together with the overall status endpoint. It returns an aggregate status, progress, and per-job details, which is useful when you are deskewing batches of reports, forms, or receipts and want a single progress view for the whole set.

The responses are straightforward: job status endpoints return job ID, status, progress, and an optional error field, while the download endpoint returns the completed file as binary output.
