        Yet Another PDF OCR Tool
        
        
        This is a library (tool) that makes PDF -> Text as easy as possble by doing a lot of the hard stuff for you!
        
        You will need ImageMagick, Tesseract, and QPDF to use yapot.
        
            Ubuntu
            ------
            > sudo apt-get install imagemagick libmagickcore-dev
            > sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr
            > sudo apt-get install qpdf
                
        To use yapot, do the following:
        
            > pip install yapot
            
        Then some code:
        
            from yapot import convert_document
            
            success, pdf_text = convert_document('file.pdf')
            
            if success == True:
                with open('file.txt', 'w') as f:
                    f.write(pdf_text)
            else:
                print "Unable to convert PDF!"
                
        It's that simple!
        
        Some more advanced things you can do are set the resolution, page delineation, and tell yapot not to delete temporary files (this can be useful when debugging nasty pdf's).
        
            success, pdf_text = yapot.convert_document(
                pdf_filename = pdf_filename,       # The name of the pdf file
                resolution = 200,                  # Image DPI resolution
                delete_files = True,               # delete temporary files
                page_delineation = '\n--------\n', # page deination text
                verbose = False,                   # output verbosity
                temp_dir = str(uuid.uuid4()),      # location of temp directory to use
                password = '',                     # password for PDF file
                make_thumbs = True,                # create thrumbnails for each page
                thumb_size = 512,                  # width of thumbnail image
                thumb_dir = './thumbs',            # directory to place thumbnails
                thumb_prefix = 'thumb_page_',      # prefix for thumbnail images
            )
