I'm aware I am running this on a Beta OS release but posting here to see if its an already known issue

I can see the intermediate files being created, then it tries to merge, and crashed out, leaving multiple blank PDF's

I'm also having this problem at the same line of code. I had to manually change the line orig_rotation_angle = 0 that bypasses this problem code at whatever angle. I don't see any problems with my rotations, but it put everything back together ok after I modified /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pypdfocr/pypdfocr_pdf.py OSX 10.13.3 High Sierra non beta release.
