Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package ocrodjvu, which is
part of the text section, and maintained by Jakub Wilk
<ubanus at users.sf.net>. 

This package contains : tool to perform OCR on DjVu documents.

ocrodjvu is a wrapper around OCRopus and Tesseract with the purpose to
perform Optical Character Recognition (OCR) in documents in DjVu format
(which is especially suited for archival of books with high quality).

When a DjVu document has been OCRed, it includes a text version of the
images of the scanned document and, with common programs, one can not
only print on paper, but also read such books/documents, searching for
specific terms and also use the information in the OCR layer as a way
to higher the accessibility of such documents.
