Just some other scripts that aren't Apple.

• ccitt2tiff.sh: uses fax2tiff to convert all the ccitt/param file pairs in a directory to tiff files, moving both sets of files into new subdirectories for neatness.

• convert_pdf: Use pdfimages to get the right dpi for a PDF and pass that along to convert.

• fix_scans.sh: Offers a whole bunch of cleaning options for image files. Good for poor scans.

• ocr_images.sh: Performs OCR on a series of image files and then dumps them all into a single PDF which is scaled to fit on both US Letter and A4 paper (8x10.5" max size). Replaced by using img2pdf followed by ocrmypdf.

• pdf_remove_metadata.py: uses pikepdf to remove all the metadata from a PDF, optionally keeping author and title.

• redo_ocr.sh: redoes the OCR on an existing PDF, preserving the first page and some metadata, if you like. Uses qpdf, ocrmypdf, and tesseract to do the actual work. Good for cleaning up those JSTOR files with horrible OCR.

• wikitbl.pl: a perl script that converts simple text tables to wikipedia-style tables.

    SYNOPSIS
    
    wikitbl.pl [-c|-t|-s <text>] [-h] [-help] <input file> [<output file>]
    
    DESCRIPTION
  
    A script to convert simple text tables to simple Wikipedia-style tables. The
    script assumes that the columns are separated by commas (also can be forced
    by -c), but will accept tabs (-t) and any other string (-s <text>). If the
    -h option is used, the script will treat the first line as a header. No
    effort is made to give all rows an equal number of cells.
    
    The following options are available:
    -c        columns are separated by comma (the default when no option is present)
    -t        columns are separated by tab
    -s <text> columns are separated by <text>
    -h        first row of file is treated as a table header
    -help     print this information
            
    If no output file is indicated, the output will go to STDOUT.
  

  Still to do: provide option for one-line-per-cell style.
