Runs ocr on pasted images and posts result in details box. This also allows the images to be searchable.
How to Use
-
Install the 'Local Images Plus' plugin so that all pasted images get copied to a local folder (this plugin uses 'Meta/Attachments/' per default)
-
Make sure you have tesseract installed:
- Head over to https://tesseract-ocr.github.io/tessdoc/Installation.html and download the installer
- Then add the folder with the tesseract.exe file to the environment variables (or insert the path into the "Tesseract Path" option in the plugin settings)
- Check if tesseract can be run from the command line
-
Execute the 'Run' command in Obsidian
-
Enjoy!
