Using the --words_dir argument

[jonah-ramponi]

Hi there,

I am wondering how this argument should be used. I assume that the user is intended to write some code which goes from (.pdf) -> (.json) where the .json is of the form "_words.json", and the image we are processing is of the form ".png" based on the code. You then provide "--words_dir ./Output" and it will pick up on the relevant json files.

The reason I wonder is that I cannot get the final excel files to fill; it appears to have the correct number of rows and columns, however they are empty. I assume that finding the bounding boxes has been done in a slightly different manner in the internal code and my code, and this is causing the issue.

I just wanted to check if there was a script for producing the "bounding box json" for an image, or if I've missed something obvious. Thanks.

I needed to ensure that I'd rescaled the image to the same dimensions as the pdf.
