Dear @linux and @academicchatter folks:
Please suggest libre/open source tools that allow for the extraction of text and images from scientific pdf documents?
P.S: I’m on a linux machine. Would like something terminal friendly, if possible!

gImageReader is a graphical front-end to the open-source OCR program Tesseract, so that might be just what you’re looking for. The default settings don’t add the OCR’d text to the PDF but you can do that.
