Anyone knows a PDF OCR tool? I am using a free online one.
I take pictures with opennotescanner which spits out a PDF which I want searchable.
Tesseracts expects PNG and outputs to text. I want the same PDF to be hidden overlaid with OCR text.
This free PDF online service does a decent job but offline would be better.

- eastendguy 5y agoFree, but also online: https://ocr.space/searchablepdf https://ocr.space/searchablepdf It comes with an API, so you can integrate it with your workflow.
- 2Gkashmiri 5y agoI tried that. Their free api is too little of use. 1MB file. I use PDF24.org which actually does everything great. Anything offline?
