OK, I'll try to answer my own question. I've been looking into the structure of PDFs while playing around with the "InspectPageContent" example from chapter 15. Font size, position, etc. seems to be defined by a group of tokens like "Tf 12 0 0 12", where "12" defines font size (width and height, I suppose. No clue about the zeros...). If the text is vertical, the same group would look like this: "Tf 0 12 -12 0". I've also found one PDF where "Tf" is substituted by "BT".
I've made a small script where I use PRTokeniser to go through the tokens of each page, and where it find the right chain of tokens, it rotates the page using the example from chapter 13. Is this the right approach? It works perfect (so far...), but I don't know how reliable it is. Am I reinventing the wheel?
