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 -- Sorry for being brief. Alternate email is rickleir at yahoo dot com > OCR on PDFs should "just work" out of the box > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-2749 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2749 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Task > Reporter: Tim Allison > Priority: Major > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
