sed is the command line part of vim.

type : in vim (when not in insert mode)

The cursor will move to bottom line and a line will open where you can type any sed command and press enter and it will run on the text, you can also define line range on which it should operate, and also select confirmation mode for replace, a feature that I guess might not be possible in sed script-wise replacement.

I hope I am saying it correctly.

Thanks.

    Yes, for Srivas ji's file text is 100% text, not images, and is 100%
    extractable to word/text file by simple copy paste. ocr is just not
    needed.

    Then, it is good that sed will make the changes without need of ocr.
    Good thought.

    I use vim on w8 so, I wouldn't downgrade to sed. he he. just
    kidding. vim has sed built in. :-)

        Rawatji,

        I was going by the assumption that the text can be easily
        extracted from
        his pdf by saving as txt. In that case just running the sed
        script will
        fix the text for the letters  with diacritics which were mapped
        to some
        other letters in the ascii font.

        Doing OCR never gives 100% correct result, so to use the OCR
        output and
        postprocess in this case may not be the best solution.

        You could try windows version of sed from
        http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.__net/packages/sed.htm
        <http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/sed.htm>

        i only tested using one para of text from page 11.

             That is very convenient solution, Shree Devi ji.

             However, if sed or other "substitutors" are not there, or
        if one
             wants to avoid using them, I think it can be done using
        built in
             post-processing method of tesseract.

             use san.DangAmbigs.txt or hin.DangAmbigs.txt whichever
        language you
             are using.

             then put them as
             Å=Ā
             one per line.

             Should it work equally well and automatically, without needing
             manual step?

             if so, then, Shree Devi ji, is there any major benefit of post
             processing in sed?

             Please remind me where this DangAmbigs file is to be put?

             Thanks.

                 eg. you would do the following substitution using sed
