Best Way to OCR a PDF in Python - spaCy Layout

In this video, I'm going to show you the best way to OCR a PDF in Python with the new spaCy Layout package. The best part about this package is that it gives you access to all the important metadata generated from a spaCy pipeline alongside layout detection and OCR. This means you will have bounding boxes for the labeled regions of text on a given image. You can also do table detection. spaCy Layout: https://github.com/explosion/spacy-layout GitHub Repo: https://github.com/wjbmattingly/youtube-spacy-layout/tree/main Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5vr5PwcXiKX_-6NTteAlXw/join If you enjoy this video, please subscribe. ✅Be my Patron: https://www.patreon.com/WJBMattingly ✅PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=AZ73QW52SUX8N&currency_code=USD&source=url If there's a specific video you would like to see or a tutorial series, let me know in the comments and I will try and make it.
