OCR for documents
This module was written to make uploaded documents, for example scans, searchable by running OCR on them.
It supports all image formats Pillow supports for reading and PDFs.
Installation
To install this module, you need to:
install tesseract and the language(s) your documents use
if you want to support OCR on PDFs, install imagemagick
install the module itself
On an Debian or Ubuntu system you would typically run:
$ sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr imagemagick
Configuration
To configure this module, go to:
Settings/Technical/Parameters/System parameters and review the parameters with names document_ocr.*
Usage
By default, character recognition is done asynchronously by a cronjob at night. This is because the recognition process takes a while and you don’t want to make your users wait for the indexation to finish. The interval to run the cronjob can be adjusted to your needs in the Scheduled Actions menu, under ` Settings`. In case you want to force the OCR to be done immediately, set configuration parameter document_ocr.synchronous to value True.
Bug Tracker
Bugs are tracked on GitHub Issues. In case of trouble, please check there if your issue has already been reported. If you spotted it first, help us smashing it by providing a detailed and welcomed feedback.
