  • The program requires Tesseract too. There are a bunch of dependency files as well. A quick Google locates them easily. I was able to go from downloading PDFsandwich to running it on the first PDF in 2 hours. It works perfectly without a single hassle. I have it running on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ with a 32GB micro SD chip. I have about 50 files of various sizes to process. I wrote a script to have PDFsandwich process each file and then upload the searchable file to a Dropbox directory. So far, no failures, just searchable PDFs. Thank you. This utility has saved me so much time and grief.
  • I have been looking for a long time for this exact utility. I very often have a need to convert pdf files to a searchable format. Thank you for putting this together.
  • Pdfsandwich does exactely what I always was missing in Tesseract. Great lilttle piece of software with many good ideas!
  • I have been looking for something like this
  • Excellent tool. It did exactly what I wanted - performing OCR on a PDF that I had scanned and creating a new PDF with the original image but also text that could be searched and cut/pasted. It required absolutely no effort to configure or operate.
