Lossy JBIG2 has been removed due to well-documented risks of character
substitution errors (e.g., 6/8 confusion). The --jbig2-lossy and
--jbig2-page-group-size arguments are now deprecated and ignored with
a warning.
Changes:
- Remove jbig2_lossy and jbig2_page_group_size from OCROptions
- Simplify optimize.py to use single-image JBIG2 encoding only
(no symbol dictionaries/JBIG2Globals)
- Remove convert_group() from jbig2enc.py
- Deprecate CLI args with warnings for backward compatibility
- Update documentation to explain lossless-only JBIG2
Migrate all code from flat accessor pattern (options.tesseract_timeout)
to the plugin namespace pattern (options.tesseract.timeout).
Key changes:
- Fix _get_plugin_options to raise AttributeError for unregistered
namespaces instead of silently returning None
- Add _convert_value helper to convert PathLike to str for plugin
model field compatibility
- Filter out _plugin_cache_* entries from JSON serialization to fix
worker process serialization (test_simulate_oom_killer)
- Update tesseract_ocr.py, ghostscript.py, _validation_coordinator.py,
and _pipelines/ocr.py to use options.tesseract.* and
options.ghostscript.* accessors
- Update tests to use setup_plugin_infrastructure() for plugin
model registration
- Update __getattr__ docstring to clarify that plugin models must be
registered for namespace access (e.g., options.tesseract.timeout)
- Update test_json_serialization.py to properly register TesseractOptions
before accessing plugin namespaces
- Worker processes now register plugin models for multiprocessing tests
- Exclude plugin cache keys from extra_attrs comparison in tests
Add user control over which rasterizer is used for PDF page rendering:
- 'auto' (default): prefers pypdfium when available, falls back to Ghostscript
- 'pypdfium': force pypdfium2 (errors if not installed)
- 'ghostscript': force traditional Ghostscript rasterizer
Changes:
- Add rasterizer field with validation to OCROptions model
- Add --rasterizer CLI argument in the Advanced options group
- Update rasterize_pdf_page hookspec to pass options to plugins
- Update pypdfium plugin with check_options hook for availability check
- Update both plugins to respect the rasterizer option

Completes Phase 5 of the CLI refactoring plan by enabling nested
plugin option access (e.g., options.tesseract.timeout) alongside
the legacy flat access (options.tesseract_timeout).
Changes:
- Add module-level plugin option model registry in _options.py
- Add __getattr__ to OCROptions for dynamic namespace access
- Register plugin models in setup_plugin_infrastructure()
- Add test for nested plugin option access
Plugin option instances are lazily created from flat field values
and cached for subsequent access.

This commit introduces Pydantic models for plugin-specific options in OCRmyPDF, focusing on:
- Creating TesseractOptions, OptimizeOptions, and GhostscriptOptions
- Adding backward compatibility properties
- Maintaining existing CLI and API functionality
- Preparing for future plugin option registration system
The changes include:
- Added type-annotated option models with validation
- Updated OCROptions to include legacy fields
- Added backward compatibility properties for jbig2 options
- Prepared groundwork for dynamic plugin option handling

The commit message captures the essence of the changes: we fixed how the output folder is handled in the hOCR pipeline by making it a proper field in OCROptions and updating the API functions accordingly.

fix: set default optimize value to 1 to prevent NoneType comparison
Co-authored-by: aider (openrouter/anthropic/claude-sonnet-4) <aider@aider.chat>
This change ensures that `fast_web_view` always has a default value of 1.0, preventing the TypeError that was occurring in multiple test cases when trying to multiply `None` with an integer.
The modifications include:
1. Changing the type hint for `fast_web_view` from `float | None` to `float`
2. Setting a default value of 1.0
3. Adding a validation step in the `model_validator` to set the default value if not provided

This commit addresses several test failures by:
- Adding a compatibility property for `jpeg_quality`
- Changing default color conversion strategy from 'auto' to 'RGB'
- Ensuring `tesseract_config` is always a list
- Improving validation for color conversion and image compression strategies

This commit addresses two issues:
1. Properly extract the PDF/A part from output_type
2. Add a placeholder output_file for hOCR API tests when output_folder is used
The changes include:
- Modifying `from_namespace` to add a placeholder output_file
- Updating PDF/A part extraction logic to handle different output_type formats
- Ensuring correct PDF/A part is passed to Ghostscript

This commit addresses several issues in the OCRmyPDF API:
- Fixed handling of 'auto' pdf_renderer by defaulting to 'hocr'
- Added placeholder for output_file when output_folder is present
- Updated model_fields access to use class method instead of instance attribute
- Improved error handling and default behavior in PDF rendering
Specifically:
- Modified `_options.py` to handle 'auto' pdf_renderer
- Updated attribute access to use class methods
- Added placeholder for output_file in special cases
- Updated `_pipelines/ocr.py` to handle 'auto' pdf_renderer
These changes resolve the test failures in `test_api.py` and improve the library's flexibility.

This commit introduces a new `OCROptions` class in `_options.py` that provides:
- Proper typing for OCRmyPDF options
- Pydantic validation
- Backward compatibility with `argparse.Namespace`
- Gradual migration support for the options system
Key changes:
- Added comprehensive option fields with type hints
- Implemented custom attribute access methods
- Created conversion methods between Namespace and OCROptions
- Updated type hints in multiple files to support both types
- Maintained existing validation logic
The new model allows for a step-by-step refactoring of the options handling throughout the project.
