The steps to run OCRmyPDF with Docker are as follows:
- Make sure Docker is installed and running:
docker run hello-world
- Pull the OCRmyPDF image:
docker pull jbarlow83/ocrmypdf
- Mark the mirror as a convenient name:
docker tag jbarlow83/ocrmypdf ocrmypdf
- Run OCRmyPDF to process PDF files:
docker run --rm -v $(pwd):/data ocrmypdf /data/input.pdf /data/output.pdf
This command will process the input.pdf in the current directory and output it to output.pdf.
The Docker approach is particularly suitable for scenarios without a local environment, realizing the cross-platform deployment and use of OCRmyPDF.
