NAME
       djvutxt - Extract the hidden text from DjVu documents.

SYNOPSIS
       djvutxt [options] inputdjvufile [outputtxtfile]

DESCRIPTION
       Program djvutxt decodes the hidden text layer of a DjVu document input‐
       djvufile and prints it into file outputtxtfile or on the standard  out‐
       put.   The  hidden  text layer is usually generated with the help of an
       optical character recognition software.

       Without options -detail and -escape, this program  simply  outputs  the
       UTF-8  text.  Option -detail cause the output of S-expressions describ‐
       ing the text and its location.	Option	-escape	 uses  C-style	escape
       sequences to represent nonprintable non-ASCII characters.

OPTIONS
       --page=pagespec
	      Specify  which  pages  should be processed.  When this option is
	      not specified, the text of all pages of the  documents  is  con‐
	      catenated into the output file.  The page specification pagespec
	      contains one or more comma-separated page ranges.	 A page	 range
	      is  either  a  page  number,  or two page numbers separated by a
	      dash.  For instance, specification 1-10 outputs pages 1  to  10,
	      and specification 1,3,99999-4 outputs pages 1 and 3, followed by
	      all the document pages in reverse order up to page 4.

       --detail=keyword
	      This options causes djvutxt to output  S-expressions  specifying
	      the  position  of	 the  text  in	the page.  See the manual page
	      djvused(1) for a description of  the  output  format.   Argument
	      keyword  specifies  the  maximum	level of detail for which text
	      location is reported.  The recognized values are: page,  column,
	      region, para, line, word, and char.  All other values are inter‐
	      preted as char.

       --escape
	      Output escape sequences of the form  "ooo" for all non ASCII  or
	      non printable UTF-8 characters and for the backslash character.

REMARKS
       Use program djvused(1) for more control over the text layer.
