What problem does it solve?
OCRing textbook pages from PDFs can be tedious and error-prone, especially when pages contain headers, footnotes, tables, and multi-column layouts; this Skill automates the process by extracting pages via OCR, merging them into a single Markdown document, and applying sentence-continuity fixes.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated OCR: Extract textbook pages using a VLM-based (multimodal-looker) subagent to produce page-level markdown.
- Document Merging: Combine multiple OCR pages into one coherent Markdown document with preserved structure.
- Text Cleanup: Fix sentence splits at page boundaries, remove duplicates, and rectify headers for readability.
- Use Case: Ideal for converting scanned textbook chapters into a single, searchable Markdown file for study notes or content analysis.
Quick Start
Use the skill to OCR pages 1-10 of a textbook PDF and merge them into a single Markdown file.
