Large quantity of high resolution e-book page images
I have 1400+ png files of pages. Images are not scanned, they are probably computer generated because there is no color corruption, distortion etc. They are probably from an official e-book version of a book. They are all in 1519 x 2459 resolution (I believe the book itself has 105 x 170 mm papers).
I need to lower its page size to make it lighter. However, every solution I tried produced image only pdfs and deleted OCR data. I can again scan this by Abbyy to make it searchable but I suppose it will have less correct OCR since I lowered the quality of images (pages). I want to have a light and searchable pdf of this book and then further convert it to epub so I can read it easily from my phone. There is no graphics in the pages as far as I saw, except for the first cover page, it is a anthology book for short stories. I'm using Windows 10, the OCR language is Turkish but the book is old and have old words so dictionary based OCRs work more inaccurately. What do you suggest I do? |

Assuming there are no copyright issues, just break it up into smaller sections… maybe 200 pages at a time. Merge, OCR, save as epub… then repeat for each of the other sections. Then combine the individual ePubs into a single ePub.

As you said those images are from an official ebook version, why not just buy that and save yourself all this headache?
