pdf-engine 1.2.0

//! OCR before extraction: read a searchable copy instead of the document.
//!
//! [`PdfDocument::searchable_copy`](crate::PdfDocument::searchable_copy) runs
//! `pdf-ocr`'s hidden-text-layer path over an in-memory copy of the document:
//! each page the window asks for is rendered at
//! [`ExtractOptions::ocr_dpi`](crate::ExtractOptions::ocr_dpi) with this
//! crate's renderer, the engine recognizes the raster, and the words land on
//! the copy as an invisible text layer. Extraction then reads the copy, so
//! recognized words go through the same segmentation as born-digital text --
//! there is no second text path for OCR to disagree with.
//!
//! The copy is an incremental update over the original bytes, not a rewrite:
//! only the layer's objects are appended, and everything the pipeline did
//! not touch is read from the untouched original.
//!
//! [`OcrMode::Auto`](crate::OcrMode::Auto) recognizes the pages under
//! `pdf-ocr`'s text threshold; [`OcrMode::Force`](crate::OcrMode::Force)
//! recognizes every page in the window after dropping its native text, so the
//! OCR layer replaces born-digital text rather than doubling it. Where the
//! pipeline changes nothing -- `Auto` over born-digital pages, or no words
//! recognized anywhere -- extraction reads the document itself: no roundtrip,
//! no behavior change.
