github ocrmypdf/OCRmyPDF v17.7.0

  • The Docker images now run as a non-root user (app, uid/gid 1000) by default
    rather than as root, as a defense-in-depth measure. If you bind-mount a
    directory for input and output, you may now need to add a --user argument so
    the container can write to it; the correct value differs for rootless Docker,
    Podman, and rootful Docker, and is described in the Docker documentation.
    Piping the input and output through stdin/stdout still works with no
    permission setup.
  • The Docker images now default their working directory to /data, so files in
    a directory mounted there can be given as relative paths without an explicit
    --workdir.
  • The Ubuntu Docker image now installs Tesseract 5 from the Ubuntu archive
    instead of the third-party alex-p/tesseract-ocr5 PPA, and the base images
    were updated to Ubuntu 26.04 and Alpine 3.24.
  • Fixed a missing space in the error message shown when OCRmyPDF cannot access
    its working directory inside a Docker container.
  • Updated packaged dependencies, including the optional web service stack
    (starlette, tornado, python-multipart) and cryptography.
