I've got a single camera scanner, do all right hand pages (take a break and let camera battery charge, transfer images to computer directory structure
Code: Select all
- book-title
- right
- left
Post processing steps I think I need to take are:
- Rename files and move them all to a single directory
- Run through Scan Tailor Advanced to rotate, split, deskew, crop, etc
- Run OCR
- Make pdf
For the rename, my camera names it's files like IMG_####.JPG with leading zeros. Current workflow and camera settings allow for both right and left pages to start at 0001, but, I might be switching to remote shooting which will probably change that. When I do the rename, what should the file names look like, IMG_####a.JPG and IMG_####b.jpg? Or just ####a.JPG and ####b.JPG? (I'm on Linux, so can't use Bulk Rename, having to write my own script unless one already exists that I haven't found yet)
I'm sure I'll have some questions on the OCR and making of the PDF at some point, but, I'm not there yet.
