Bulk OCR from jpgs to multiple text files
Hi
I have over two thousand jpgs of newspaper clippings dating back to the 1940s that I have scanned in for my Cricket club. I would like to run character recognition that create a txt file for each jpg that exists. Each file is named according to the year, for example 4546N001.jpg, and after OCR has run I would like a file 4546N001.txt to be created. All of this can be done manually using an OCR application but I am wondering if this could be done in bulk without user intervention. Maybe via a script. I am running out of my time to complete the project and doing each file individually is taking up too much time. The quality of the read is not a concern. The txt file is only used for a search index and is never viewed. Has anyone ever tried this and could they recommend a software package. Thank you. |
