ScanTailor OCR 1.0.0
First release of ScanTailor OCR: ScanTailor Advanced 1.2.1 plus export to compact, searchable PDF.
Highlights
- PDF export ("File → Create PDF ..."): choose and order the pages; black and white pages stored losslessly as JBIG2, mixed pages with split output in layers (text over a small JPEG picture).
- Text recognition (OCR) with Tesseract: an invisible text layer makes the PDF searchable. German and English are included; more languages can be downloaded in the program.
- Many fixes and improvements to ScanTailor Advanced 1.2.1 – see the README for the full list.
