HOCR contenteditable not working; Oxygen will be the way
Posted by mholmes on 07 Dec 2015 in Activity log
The discovery that there's no way to save changes to contenteditable fields without JS and submission to a server (or horrible hacks with local storage) means that we can't go that route with this project, so we're back to editing HOCR in Oxygen (which is perfectly OK). I've reconfigured the project based on that. KS has also rescanned all the volumes into individual JPGs at higher res, and that stuff is all in svn now. I've also written some additional XSLT which can hopefully combine split words in response to the deletion of spaces between them, as well as eliminating line elements, so we have some hope of getting working hocr2pdf output. Progress of sorts.
