SUMMARY
The "Export PDF" functionality allows me to create a PDF with text recognition
in different languages. Clicking the button "Export PDF" shows up a window that
should list the languages available for the tesseract module to use in the
process of the text recognition. However, with the latest update of skanpage
(deb package from the repository), the list of languages is no more visible,
and the OCR is not working anymore.
With the previous version of skanpage instead, the OCR was perfectly working.
Maybe in the latest deb package the "tesseract" dependency is missing?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Scan a page with Skanpage
2. Click the "Export PDF" button
3. The list of languages for the OCR is missing
OBSERVED RESULT
The list of languages for the OCR functionality is missing, so the PDF output
has no text recognized.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should be possible to select the languages that I want to recognize. The PDF
output should contain the recognized text, and I should be able to copy it.
