That worked, thank you very much Shree! I could tell right away that it was working because it was writing to stdout:
Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine v4.1.0 with Leptonica Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Detected 14 diacritics Page 14 and so no. And finally I had the txt with all of the text as expected. Something should be noted somewhere that at least in certain contexts multipage png files -- whatever "multipage" means in the case of these files -- will not render correctly.
