I'm trying to ocr a pdf document in tesseract that has Greek and English text.



I converted the files to tiff since tesseract can't input pdf



tesseract file.tiff output -l eng+osd+ell


Gives me no errors, but it is in a text document I need it in PDF with the image of the document



So I use:



tesseract file.tiff output pdf -l eng+osd+ell


But I get the following error:



read params file: Can't open l 
read params file: Can't open eng+osd+ell


Tesseract is only allowing me to convert pdf in English only and keep the image but with text document it does English, osd, and Greek, but now I lose the picture contained in the pdf/tiff. How do I get it to convert to pdf with multiple languages?
