A document archiving tool for Linux and Windows

About

Ocrivist is an application designed to simplify the process of scanning printed documents and archiving them in digital format. It allows books and documents to be scanned or imported from digital images, then saved in DjVu or PDF formats. Printed documents can also be processed using optical character recognition so that the text of the archived document can be searched digitally.
