Trying to get a deeper understanding of PDFs

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/pdf

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • tesseract-ocr

    Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine (main repository)

    In this case I would go the low effort route: Use tesseract (https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract) to do the OCR part and "pdftotext" from the poppler utils to convert all PDFs to text. The quality should be fine. Works on Linux and most probably also natively on Windows.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
