OCR PDF Documents Using Tesseract Docker Image

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a powerful technology that converts different types of documents, such as scanned paper documents, PDF files, or images captured by a digital camera, into editable and searchable data. Tesseract is one of the most popular open-source OCR engines available today. In this article, we will explore how to use Tesseract within a Docker container to perform OCR on PDF documents. Why Use Docker for OCR? Docker provides a consistent environment for running applications, ensuring that the software behaves the same way regardless of where it is deployed.
