To run these programs, both pdf2json and pdfplumber are required. They can be found here: https://github.com/modesty/pdf2json https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber

To run all processing at once, the command will take this form: './pdf_processing.sh -f path/to/file -r int(resolution) -p true'

FOR EXAMPLE: ./pdf_processing.sh -f pdfs/my_pdf.pdf -r 300 -p true

The above example would run on 'my_pdf.pdf' inside the 'pdfs' directory. The resulting generation resolution of the image would be 300, and separate human readable JSON would be generated.

'-f' specifies a PDF file; this is required. Specify the path to the file from your current directory.

'-r' specifies a resolution for the PDFs converted to images - this is optional and will default to 150 if no resolution is specified.

'-p' determines whether human-readable JSON should be generated. If it is to be generated, use '-p true'. If anything else is used or the flag is dropped, no human-readable JSON will be created.
