       I started developing a little package for Tesseract OCR integration in Emacs. Any feedback / contribution is highly appreciated.https://github.com/SebastianMeisel/tesseract.el #emacs #emacslisp #ocr #tesseract

       @SebasTEAan Great idea! I like that you used Orgmode. This way reading the source is like reading a good documentation at the same time. 🚀​I was looking for something like that to get my filing under control. I literally have thousands of scanned PDFs and since I left Dropbox years ago I have trouble finding stuff.

       @louis Thank you. The same problem as yours was my motivation. I just added support to run Tesseract on multiple images from Dired. I hope to add support to add a text layer to existing PDFs soon, so they become searchable.

       @louis @SebasTEAan if the scanned pdfs were already ocrd, https://github.com/phiresky/ripgrep-all is pretty handy for searching
