I really wanted this to be good. Unfortunately it converted a page that contained a table that is usually very hard for converters to properly convert and I got a full page with "! Picture 1:" and nothing else. On top of that, it hung at page 17 of a 25 page document and never resumed.

Author here, that sucks. I'd love to recreate this locally. Would you be willing to share the PDF?

I presume this doesn't handle handwriting.

Does anyone have a suggestion for locally converting PDFs of handwriting into text, say on a recent Mac? Use case would be converting handwritten journals and daily note-taking.

Author here, I tested it with this PDF of a handwritten doc [1], and it converted both pages accurately.

Almost perfect, the PDF I tested it missed only a few symbols.

But that is something I will use for sure. Thank you.

Glad to hear it! What types of symbols did it miss?

This is super cool, and really intuitive.

Not going to lie, I've put a few hundred hours into playing Cities:Skylines and have never finished a city. One night with this and I've actually made something I'm proud of.

Check my city out!: https://i.imgur.com/10nCtrO.png
