djvutxt - Extract the hidden text from DjVu documents.

Credits

       This program was initially written by Andrei Erofeev <andrew_erofeev@yahoo.com>  and  was  then  improved
       Bill Riemers <docbill@sourceforge.net> and many others. It was then rewritten to use the ddjvuapi by Leon
       Bottou <leonb@sourceforge.net>.

Description

       Program  djvutxt  decodes  the hidden text layer of a DjVu document inputdjvufile and prints it into file
       outputtxtfile or on the standard output.  The hidden text layer is usually generated with the help of  an
       optical character recognition software.

       Without  options  -detail  and -escape, this program simply outputs the UTF-8 text.  Option -detail cause
       the output of S-expressions describing the text and its location.  Option  -escape  uses  C-style  escape
       sequences to represent nonprintable non-ASCII characters.

Name

       djvutxt - Extract the hidden text from DjVu documents.

Options

--page=pagespec
              Specify which pages should be processed.  When this option is not specified, the text of all pages
              of  the  documents is concatenated into the output file.  The page specification pagespec contains
              one or more comma-separated page ranges.  A page range is  either  a  page  number,  or  two  page
              numbers  separated  by  a  dash.   For  instance,  specification  1-10  outputs pages 1 to 10, and
              specification 1,3,99999-4 outputs pages 1 and 3, followed by all the  document  pages  in  reverse
              order up to page 4.

       --detail=keyword
              This  options  causes  djvutxt  to output S-expressions specifying the position of the text in the
              page.  See the manual page djvused(1) for a description of the output  format.   Argument  keyword
              specifies  the maximum level of detail for which text location is reported.  The recognized values
              are: page, column, region, para, line, word, and char.  All other values are interpreted as char.

       --escape
              Output escape sequences of the form  "ooo" for all non ASCII or non printable UTF-8 characters and
              for the backslash character.

Remarks

       Use program djvused(1) for more control over the text layer.
