# Applescript to batch OCR PDFs using PDF Expert.
# By Alex Wellerstein. Last updated December 16, 2024. No copyright asserted -- released for public domain use.

# Seems to work on OS 14.6.1, with PDF Expert 3.10.10.
# Has not been extensively tested to see what happens if you try to do other work while it is running; could foul up.
