Disable OCR scan?

[kgoerbig]

I just installed Papermerge DMS 3.0.3 as a docker container. OCR seems to take forever, and gobbles up most of the CPU usage. Uploading a 14 page PDF (14MB) OCR is unending. I do not need OCR as I can run other utilities that do that job before I upload to papermerge.

Is there a way to disable OCR scan when uploading a pdf to papermerge?

I disabled "OCR" in docker-compose.yml , however after building the papermerge docker container, it still OCR scans a pdf upload. Is there any known way to disable OCR scans for the docker container?

I am wondering why, seriously outdated, 3.0.3? In latest version (3.4.1) you can skip OCR via UI:
