[PLUG] Managing PDF Files on Linux? |
Anybody know of an easy way to manage PDF files and associated OCR text files in Linux? I am trying to do receipt-scanning, and I can find tons of guides on how to actually scan stuff on linux (already a solved problem), but little on how to manage the mountain of resulting PDFs. Right now I'm taking PDF files and associated OCR'd text files and just sticking them in directory trees by category/month. The problem is classifying those documents is a real pain - I tend to scan in batches and I end up having to open every PDF file to look at it, and then I have to drag/drop that one file into the right place. I haven't found any file manager that will do live previews of PDF files, beyond a very tiny icon thumbnail which is next to useless. Any suggestions for software that will let me easily view/tag/sort PDF files? Most will never be looked at again, but many are things that I need to know that I can find if I need to.
