Hello:
I'm working to script some processes at work and have come across a
problem creating pdfs from tiff images. I can easily do it with
'convert' from imagemagick, but this yields an image pdf rather than a
text pdf which means one can't search it, select text, or full-text
index the pdf. I was wondering if anyone has any advice about how to
integrate ocr into the process. Alternately, I've been given a copy of
Acrobat 7 Pro, but it doesn't seem to have a scriptable API.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jim
