Image Manipulation Service Menu - imagemagick

Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net

Description:

Service Menu for image manipulation in KDE. Works fine in Dolphin or konqueror.

HOWTO INSTALL KDE 5x:

1) Needs packages imagemagick, ocrmypdf and gksu to be installed (install from package management)!

2) Extract archive and extract the archives within the archive

3) Extract content from folder within archive 'usr-share-kservices5-servicemenus' in this folder:
/usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/
(you have to be root to do that. Start "gksu thunar" or "gksu yourfilemanager" in order to become root)

4) Insert content of folder 'home-scripts' in your home folder in a subfolder called 'scripts'. So for example:
/home/myusername/scripts/

5) Restart Dolphin or Konqueror

6) Open this file as root: /etc/ImageMagick-7/policy.xml
And change this line --> policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PDF" to this: policy domain="coder" rights="reader | write" pattern="PDF"

7) Finished! Simply click right on image file and go to 'Actions' and then 'Images' and convert images. A new file will be created so no original files are overwritten.

OLD: HOWTO INSTALL KDE 4x:

Hi, if someone can tell me how to do it, I will implement the sorting by name!
But at the moment I don't know how. @gassauer: I implemented your OCR-Suggestion

it would be great if the menu items would be sorted alphabetically (depending on language used)

I prefer the ocr as postfix.
using ocr as a prefix the ocr file is not located next to the original in alphabetic order.
just my 2 cents - very nice indeed.
ocr-pdf-ger.sh

#!/bin/bash

_file="${1}"
_directory=$(dirname "$_file")
_filename=$(basename "$_file")
_filename=`echo ${_filename} | sed -e 's/.pdf/_ocr.pdf/'`
ocrmypdf -l deu "${_file}" "${_directory}/${_filename}"

Thank you very convenient and useful tool !! Ps it is a Pity only localizations on all languages are not present and the directory with executable scripts (home/%Username%/scripts/*.sh) not very convenient. Maybe you can somehow "finished" ??
