How should a newcomer choose and test local OCR or PDF tools in Pinokio?
I build financial education and browser utility projects, and I am exploring local workflows for turning scanned English and Hindi PDFs into searchable notes.
Before installing an app, where should I check its RAM, GPU and storage requirements? Does Pinokio show whether an app downloads models or sends document content to an external API, or should I check each project’s documentation?
I would also appreciate advice on testing OCR accuracy and keeping page references so extracted information can be checked against the original PDF.
If you have a beginner-friendly setup or guide, what would you recommend and what limitations should I expect?
