> I am proposing to have a component in cTAKES that is capable of taking in various types of content (PDF, Scanned JPG's, Word, XLS, TXT, etc.), extracting the text content before passing it on to cTAKES for NLP processing.
> There are currently open source libraries such as TIKA, JavaOCR as a starting point but I have not found a centralized lib that also incorporates all of the above including OCR into the flow easily.
