Executing 'apt-cache search tesseract' brings up a multitude of
packages.
My need is simple enough, I think: I like to scan (using an
Epson scanner) pages of printed books -- almost one hundred per
cent text -- and then use OCR to produce pages from which I can
copy 'n paste snippets of text for note-taking purposes.
What do the assembled multitudes suggest for a tesseract package
(that's the OCR I've been encouraged to use) on my bullseye
system, which uname characterizes as:
Linux debian.localdomain 5.10.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.46-4
(2021-08-03) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Thank you.
