@jbarlow83 Fully have to agree @ericmjl:

Was trying pdfsandwich before, which was producing enormous file sizes for CANON-brand scanned documents (which does store the text part of the image ccitt encoded).
Even more, there is only a single option for grayscale / rgb - for the whole document!

ocrmypdf does just use the correct settings (per page) from the original document.
BIG thumbs up (y)

@jbarlow83 You may want to close this or somehow pin it, if github allows that.

Yeah, the quality and strength of ocrmypdf is comparable to commercial products.

Cheers,

Heyo, +1 here as well.

Thank you for the excellent software. I was able to plug in my Brother ADS-1200 to Fedora 34 KDE, install the GNOME Document Scanner, save the duplex page as a multi-page PDF, and have OCRmyPDF working in less than 1 hour.

For Linux on the Desktop, that's an amazing record.

Great, no, fabulous job on this software package. Thank you!

I am extremely impressed by this project.

I was frustrated because my insurance company was able to generate a great-looking PDF of my ID card, but it was not searchable. This meant that I couldn't quickly copy and paste the ID number of the group number, and had to manually copy this info.

In less than 3 minutes, I found the software through a google search, installed the software through apt, and then OCRed my ID card. Straightforward to do, great name, and very thorough/easy to read documentation, bravo.

I offer my kudos as well. OCRmyPDF is simply outstanding. The best there is in linux if not anywhere. Thank you for this invaluable tool!

Not only does it do its job adding copyable and searchable text to the pdf, it also reduces its file size! I am very impressed! I do wish that I'd found it before I tried all those other ways of optimizing the file size of my pdf...
