Yes it is inspired by the post about texts in videos. It reminded me I have been seeking such a tool for PDFs. Yandex advertises this however it has not been very helpful in my experience.
If you want ocr you can use tesseract-ocr. If you want to extract actual text from a pdf then you can use something like pdf2text from poppler tools but you will have to fix the formatting a lot.
Gotcha thanks I’m going to look into this
Anything with good formatting is fine in my book.
Or at least one that gets the words right.
Tesseract is what’s usually used for this
Oh, didn’t know this; I use Adobe though.
Thanks I’ll check this out
Like an OCR tool?
That’s what I’m thinking as well; lots of add-ons and extensions for browsers too out there.
OCR?
Thanks I will check this out
