---------------------------------
Summary: Change default image resize size in TesseractParser's
pre-processing step
Key: TIKA-3271
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-3271
Project: Tika
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Tim Allison
If users have ImageMagick installed and they select image preprocessing, one of
the things we are currently doing is telling ImageMagick to expand the image by
900%. This _may_ make sense for small images..tbd...however, this can lead to
massive files and dramatic increases in processing time.
At some point, we should probably increase the image size based on the initial
image size, e.g. dynamic resizing.
Until then, for Tika 2.0.0, I propose that we change the default to 200%. This
value is completely heuristic and not based on much data aside from Peter
Kronenberg's work:
