Is PDF / DOCX support on the roadmap?

[wdoppenberg]

I know this is not trivial since I've been unsuccessful in finding any PDF->image Rust library, but is this something you plan on supporting in the future?

If help is needed please let me know.

Ocrs could potentially integrate with existing libraries or CLI tools for rendering PDFs somehow. It could also serve as a backend for a project like OCRmyPDF. What use case did you have in mind?

I would love PDF support as I need to batch load invoice PDF's and extra the text data which can then be saved as JSON to a DB

@tomtom215 fwiw, you can try to preprocess your pdfs with pdf2image which works pretty well.
