How to use OCR to search within my image-based PDFs?

[skatehy]

Thank you so much for creating this plugin—it truly makes things a lot easier! However, I’ve encountered a small issue. Sometimes, my PDFs are image-based, which makes it more challenging to convert them into OCR text. I often find that the OCR recognition isn’t accurate. Is there any way I could search the content of my image-based PDFs using the search bar?

I really admire how another software, Marginote, allows me to search for text (use OCR)simply by typing the content. Would it be possible to have a feature that lets me both annotate and search within image-based PDFs in the annotation?

Additionally, I looked through some other issues and uploaded the Taskbone plugin as suggested. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to be working for me.

This project is dead (mostly probably)...

It's really disappointing that this plugin can't be maintained anymore. I've started using pdf++ instead for viewing PDF files.
