Making an archive out of my grandfather's writings. What OCR scanning and doc mgt system to use?
On tesseract base here is a software to make a scan a text searchable pdf. It take a bit of time and can be a bit tedious but it does the work! https://github.com/manisandro/gImageReader/releases It does not work well on cursive writing of course. It's a bit less heavy code sided solution. Good luck!
- Is there free software for windows that can read scanned handwriting and turn it into text?
- أحمل برنامج صخر منين؟ دورت عليه كتير مش لاقياه؟ ولو مش موجود حد يعرف أي بديل كويس بيعمل Arabic OCR؟

Writer - Tips to remove breaks and hyphenations from PDF to DOC conversion?
I'm working with old newspaper PDFs to convert them into DOC formats. I'm having a great time with gImageReader by highlighting columns and converting them to plain text. Then I take that plain text into Libreoffice Writer (7.0.4.2) to clean up and save. If this were a book as opposed to a newspaper with ads and columns, it would have bee a lot easier to convert and format.

Best OCR software for extracting pdf to txt - Paid or Free version.
It would help to know a bit more of your usecase. If you're looking to just extract the text (ie, take all the textual content of your PDF and drop it into a separate text document), there are solutions like ABBYY Finereader and gImageReader. If you're looking to make PDFs searchable (keeping the scanned pages, but adding a text layer underneath so you can search and copy from them), there's NAPS2 (which has an additional command line tool for automation) and OCRmyPDF.

Help plz! Tool to enhance pdf text quality?
OpenSource OCR... for desktop users I like "gImageReader" URL: https://github.com/manisandro/gImageReader (Technically is GUI for tessaract)

Good Open Source OCR software
gImageReader is the linux standard that I'm aware of. It's a GUI to Tessaeract, but IIRC you can use other models if you have them.

The Case Against AI Everything, Everywhere, All at Once
You can still choose automation. The easier route for me is to use wallabag to save the article. Then on my remarkable tablet I can grab a very readable document with https://github.com/koreader/koreader.
The other option is to use https://github.com/danburzo/percollate to convert a webpage to a nice document directly. I use both tools depending on my needs.

Reverse Engineering or Recreating the Chrome Extension?
If someone hasn't already done this and I can't figure out how they are converting HTML, I have also considered using Percollate to convert, then sending to ReMarkable via rmapi.

The Cli Tool Percollate offers a different approach, but is also very good: https://github.com/danburzo/percollate

Show HN: Lurnby, a tool for better learning, is now open source
Since I'm working on a similar project, this is how I am planning to pull content from the web, utilizing percollate[1] to get the HTML content, I haven't written any implementation for this in Python yet.
If you don't mind me asking, how were you going to implement spaced repetition? Since the Incremental Reading algorithm has never been published as far as I know.
