Currently the TesseractOCRParser supports two output formats: plain text and HOCR. The second was recently added by Eric Pugh. My question is if we should add the third output option 'PDF' which is provided by Tesseract.

Hi, why do I use tika-app-1.20.jar to identify the PDF, but I cannot identify the content?There are only images in the PDF, and there is text on the image. I guess it should call tesserect OCR to do the recognition, but I don't find that it does the work. Why |

I am not sure if it is enough to add the output type as I did in the TesseractOCRConfig.
The other discussion point is if this feature fits the focus of the Tika Project. See the discussion here:
