Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.

This application uses Tesseract OCR engine of Tesseract 3 which works by recognizing character patterns ( -ocr/tesseract). Tesseract has unicode (UTF-8) support, and can recognize more than 100 languages "out of the box".

I use Butterknife library, it's very useful and the main library is - 'tess-two:9.0.0'' - it contains a fork of Tesseract Tools for Android (tesseract-android-tools) that adds some additional functions. Also, we need camera and write permissions, so add it to AndroidManifest.xml.

Make sure to: 1. Create the folder2. in that folder you have to put the traineddata file (You can download it from here in the language you require -ocr/tessdata/tree/3.04.00 )3. Reference the path to the folder cointining the traineddata file and state the language:tessBaseApi.init(DATA_PATH, "eng");

Essentially, pdfsandwich is a wrapper script which calls the following binaries: unpaper (since version 0.0.9), convert, gs, hocr2pdf (for tesseract prior to version 3.03), and tesseract. It is known to run on Unix systems and has been tested on Linux and MacOS X. It supports parallel processing on multiprocessor systems.

While pdfsandwich works with any version of tesseract from version 3.0 on, tesseract 3.03 or later is recommended for best performance. By default, pdfsandwich runs unpaper to enhance the readability of scanned pages and to improve OCR. For instance, slightly rotated pages are automatically straightened and dark edges removed. For optimally scanned pdf files, this can be switched off by option -nopreproc to speed up processing.

Debian and Ubuntu provide pdfsandwich through their standard repositories, although not always the latest versions. Independent of this, I maintain pdfsandwich deb packages which are available for Download on the project website. If you prefer to install the latest version, download the respective deb file, e.g. pdfsandwich_0.1.7_amd64.deb to some local directory, and either use your preferred graphical package manager or execute the following commands in this directory:sudo dpkg -i pdfsandwich_0.1.7_amd64.deb # If there are error messages due to missing dependencies, ignore them and proceed.sudo apt-get -fy install

pdfsandwich is open source software (license: GPL). You can download the sources either as .tar.bz2 package from the download area on the project website or check them out by subversion:svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/pdfsandwich/code/trunk/src pdfsandwich

PDF is a document format optimized for printing. It specifies its page size in units of the the paper on which the file is supposed to be printed, such as A4 or letter. OCR, however, is an image processing operation which requires a digital image as a raster of pixels. Therefore, we need to rasterize each page of the PDF with a resolution which yields character sizes suitable for tesseract. For text sizes which are conveniently readable on a printed A4 or letter page, the default resolution of pdfsandwich, 300 dpi, is a reasonable choice.More specifically, it is recommended that the x-height, that is the height of the lower case letter x, should be around 20 pixels, but definitely not smaller than 10 pixels (see tesseract FAQ).

Sometimes, a scanner software generates PDFs with unreasonably large page size settings, which you typically notice when you need to zoom the pages to very low percentages in your PDF reader to be able to read the page content properly. If such a huge PDF page would be rasterized with 300 dpi, very large digital images would be the result which would slow down tesseract and would require large amounts of memory to be processed. As in most cases, such huge page sizes are errors of the scanner software, the default settings of pdfsandwich cause such pages to be scaled down to around page size A3 prior to OCR and then generate the sandwich pdf. If you know for sure that the very large pages of your input file are intended, for instance in cases of scanned posters, you can increase the parameter -maxpixels to prevent pdfsandwich from scaling down the page size prior to OCR.

Note that the respective tesseract language package needs to be installed on your system to be usable by pdfsandwich. This option lists the languages which are available on your system:pdfsandwich -list_langs 2b1af7f3a8
