I am also looking for some input and help in wrapping tesseract with swig, ctypes or pyrex. ROADMAP:clean up existing module add tests concurrency and threading?? is tesseract thread safe? REST interface: send url of PDF or JSON dictionary of PDF urls to Web interface (Django) add PDFs to queue, process put resulting text into database notify user when jobs are complete via RSS or Email Would this design be cleaner?ctypes/pyrex/swig wrapping pf Tesseract-ocr, xPDF, and NetPBM bins?
