cups-ocr

Generate a text file from any text found in a document sent to this printer. Actually first prints to a tiff file. Tesseract reads the tiff file outputting a text file, which is presented to the user in the spool. Modeled after cups-pdf.

Usage

You can now add a "Virtual Printer (OCR Printer)" and use the Postscript/Generic postscript color printer driver.

Note that cups-ocr has a configuration file in /etc/cups. The default location for pdf output is /var/spool/cups-ocr/$username. You can now add a "Virtual Printer (OCR Printer)" and use the Postscript/Generic postscript color printer driver.
