Is there an example snippet that can help with this or a pointer on how to approach this?
I have a scanned book as a PDF, for example this google one: http://ia600307.us.archive.org/21/items/lightsandshadow00whipgoog/lightsandshadow00whipgoog.pdf When I OCR this in AcrobatX the filesize grows from 12 megs to 54 megs (the images get bigger even though I use Searchable Image "Exact"). I'd like to open the original non-OCRd PDF and copy the OCRed hidden text from the second larger OCR'd PDF into it, hopefully retaining a smaller image filesize but gaining the ability to search and highlight the PDF. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Mar 27 - Feb 2 Save $400 by Jan. 27 Register now! http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev2 _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions iText(R) is a registered trademark of 1T3XT BVBA.
