ocrFile() error

[atanasj]

Hi.

When trying to use the ocrFile() function, I enter the below syntax:

ocrFile(file_path="~/#R_Projects/officeR/ImageOnly.pdf", output_dir="~/#R_Projects/officeR/abbyyR/", exportFormat = "pdfa", save_to_file = TRUE)

However, I get the following error: Error in curl_download(finishedlist$resultUrl[res$id == finishedlist$id], : Argument 'url' must be string.

I found a response to a similar issue at stackoverflow, but running that syntax didn't help either.

Not sure what is going wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This has to be a 'stringsAsFactors' issue. I have pushed a change.

My rec. would be to try the function after running:

options(stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

You can also download the new. v. on Github that should do that. I am looking to move from ldply which seems to create these issues. I very likely have a good solution but need to test.
