Rick Leir commented on TIKA-2749:
---------------------------------

Luis, Tesseract accepts TIFF and JPEG, so why convert it to a PDF? 

Yes, the contrast needs to be adjusted in many cases . This can be automated, 
as shown in the c7atess project. Cheers -- Rick

> There are now two different ways (with various parameters) to trigger OCR on 
> inline images within PDFs.  The user has to 1) understand that these are 
> available and then 2) elect to turn one of those on.
> I think we should make OCR'ing on PDFs "just work" perhaps with a hybrid 
> strategy between the 2 options.  Users should still be allowed to configure 
> as they wish, of course.
