Multiple tifs to one file

[Stathis L.]

Is there a way to combine several tiffs into one ocr file? If so, what may be the command for that?

Thanks

Try Merge TIFF function of VietOCR.

IMO there are 2 easy solutions:

1. You can combine input images with ImageMagick to multipage tif (e.g. convert image1.png image2.bmp image3.tif output.tif)

2. You can create text file with image filename per line. e.g. filelist.lst that has this context:

song.png

tessinput.tif

superscript.png

testp.png

than you can ocr this list by command:

tesseract filelist.lst ocr_output

Point is it's a 800-900 page tiff that I want to create and these solutions don't really work, as making a list is not a question and VietOCR runs out of memory. Anything else?

Are you replying to Quan or Zdenko?  It helps if you include a reference to the text that you're replying to or commenting on.

Zdenko offered a couple of different solutions.  If you don't like either of those, google "merge tiff files" and choose one of the other (many) options.

That's a huge file! I'm not sure if any program can handle that size, including Tesseract. My suggestion is to keep the files to several tens-page size, or OCR them individually and merge the outputs.
