Interesting. I've used ocrmypdf for this a lot - https://ocrmypdf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/


I tried both recently on a scanned, color document recently. pdfsandwich gave me really unpleasant, monochrome, and blown out results; ocrmypdf did what I expected, giving me a searchable pdf.


Looks great.. I'm just trying to find the Windows binary?



This Docker app looks useful, thank you.


And people say Linux doesn't have any programs :P


I've been using ocrmypdf on Windows through WSL very successfully. Works perfectly.


Looks like there isn't any


It's great and I use it almost every day: paperless-ng uses it in the background.
