Thanks for this. Time to play around and experiment.

Thank for for the great responses so far. I’ve encountered some limitations due to university provided laptop (Power/OS of Windows 11) and my own coding inexperience. However, I am exploring a setup that employs Docker and Paperless NGX. I’ve yet to upload hand written notes in PDF format, but as captured via a phone camera the OCR is abysmal. For typed PDF, the OCR is perfect. It parsed through, with no errors, a 100 page contract document and provided the text for import into an analytical program.

I have some reading and learning to do, and I appreciate your reply.

I appreciate your answer; give me time to research what you’ve laid before me and get back to you. Feel free to ping me (PM? DM? I’m new here) to discuss further. I am starting from 0 on this one, including having little to no knowledge of Obsidian beyond “Hey, that exists.”
