Dear Maintainer,

today I tried to OCR a 39 page document I imported as PDF. After
viewing the results for the first two pages, the ocrfeed interface
was no longer updated -- I could choose other pages, but the
content shown was always for page 2. Saving the file, exporting it
etc. wouldn't work, the dialogs were not shown.

In the terminal I started ocrfeeder from, errors are displayed,
see below. The reason given is "Zu viele offene Dateien" i.e. "too
many open files".

Cheers

Michael

Sorry for the late reply, I've just arrived back from holidays :)

I'm talking to upstream to see if we can take a look at this.

Is that PDF file available somewhere?

Thanks,

Berto

Ok, we'll also try to reproduce it with a different document.

No problem :-)

Sorry, no. I will keep my eyes open if I find a document that shows the
same error and is public.

Cheers

Is this the correct place to post OCRFeeder bugs?

If so, I was able to I was able to reproduce this bug.  The pdf I am using is 608 pages long, and is all image based.  I was trying to convert it to text so that I could use tts, and highlighting.

OCRFeeder will correctly import every page and it will correctly recognize every document page.  However, when I try select any page beyond page 4 for editing, OCRFeeder will fail to respond.  Also, if I try to Save As or Export the document, I get the following error message:

"Could not read the contents of [username here]" "Too many open files"
