Announcing indiPDF 1.1: Local OCR, Scanner Integration, and Enhanced Security

We’re excited to announce indiPDF 1.1, a major update that brings three highly-requested features to our Linux PDF editor.

Local OCR with Tesseract

indiPDF 1.1 integrates directly with Tesseract to provide optical character recognition without any cloud processing. Scan a document, run OCR, and get searchable text — all on your machine. Your documents never leave your computer.

Scanner Integration

Connect your scanner directly to indiPDF and scan documents straight into the editor. No need for a separate scanning application. Scan, edit, annotate, and save — all in one workflow.

Enhanced Security

We’ve improved our document encryption capabilities with stronger key derivation and added support for certificate-based document signing.

How to Update

If you’re on Flathub, the update will arrive automatically. AppImage, DEB, and RPM packages are available on our downloads page.
