Hi Manuel, who can access a document is controlled by the document type (my girlfriend, me or both). And then I run a mixture between folders and tags. Folders are very toplevel (e.g. banking) and tags are more precise (e.g. bank statement account 1, bank statement account 2). So folders are some top level sort criteria and the detailled criteria are the tags. The disadvantage of this approach is that everybody can see all tags so you have to be precise and set up a naming convention if don't use it on your own. Would be nice if there were ACLs for tags.
Currently I don't see any benefit in indices for me and I must assume that I don't understand them (but I didn't spend so much time on this topic). Quite interesting that it runs well on a Pi... I had a document which was the terms and conditions of my cable TV (13 pages, 4 columns in font size 3 or so ;-)) and the OCR run one hour on it. Cheers Mirco Am Dienstag, 11.
