 What OCRmyPDF does
 ------------------
 
-OCRmyPDF analyzes each page of a PDF to determine the colorspace and resolution (DPI) needed to capture all of the information on that page without losing content.  It uses `Ghostscript <http://ghostscript.com/>`_ to rasterize the page, and then performs on OCR on the rasterized image.  It is not enough to simply extract the images from each page and run OCR on them individually.  Of course one could use Ghostscript or another PDF rasterizer and then pass the image to Tesseract.  OCRmyPDF automates this process and produces a minimally changed output file that contains the same information, colorspace and resolution.

 OCRmyPDF must open and interpret your PDF in order to insert an OCR layer. First, it runs all PDFs through `qpdf <https://github.com/qpdf/qpdf>`_, a program that repairs PDFs with syntax errors. This is done because, in the author's experience, a significant number of PDFs in the wild especially those created by scanners are not well-formed files. qpdf makes it more likely that OCRmyPDF will succeed, but offers no security guarantees. qpdf is also used to split the PDF into single page PDFs.
 
-After qpdf, OCRmyPDF examines each page using `PyPDF2 <https://github.com/mstamy2/PyPDF2>`_. This library also has no warranties or guarantees.
+After qpdf, OCRmyPDF examines each page using `PyPDF2 <https://github.com/mstamy2/PyPDF2>`_. This library also has no warranties or guarantees. OCRmyPDF works with qpdf 5.0 and up, but version 7.0 is recommended because of known security vulnerabilities in early versions.
 
-Finally, OCRmyPDF rasterizes each page of the PDF using `Ghostscript <http://ghostscript.com/>`_ in ``-dSAFER`` mode. 
+Finally, OCRmyPDF rasterizes each page of the PDF using `Ghostscript <http://ghostscript.com/>`_ in ``-dSAFER`` mode.
 
 Depending on the options specified, OCRmyPDF may graft the OCR layer into the existing PDF or it may essentially reconstruct ("re-fry") a visually identical PDF that may be quite different at the binary level. That said, OCRmyPDF is not a tool designed for sanitizing PDFs.
 
-Using OCRmyPDF online
----------------------
+Using OCRmyPDF online or as a service
+-------------------------------------
 
-OCRmyPDF is not designed to be deployed "as a service", in a setting where a user/attacker could upload a file for OCR processing online. It is not designed to be secure in this case.
+OCRmyPDF should not be deployed as a public-facing service, such as a website where a potential attacker could upload a PDF of their choice for OCR. OCRmyPDF is not designed to be secure against PDF malware. Another concern is PDFs specifically designed to be a denial of service attack: PDFs can contain recursive data structures that sometimes send parsers into infinite loops, and issue complex graphics drawing commands.
+
+Setting aside these concerns, a side effect of OCRmyPDF is it may incidentally sanitize PDFs that contain malware. It runs ``qpdf`` to repair the PDF, which could correct malformed PDF structures that are part of an attack. When PDF/A output is selected (the default), the input PDF is partially reconstructed by Ghostscript. When ``--force-ocr`` is used, all pages are rasterized and reconverted to PDF, which could remove malware in embedded images. No guarantees.
+
+OCRmyPDF should be relatively safe to use in a trusted intranet, with some considerations:
+
+Limiting CPU usage
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+OCRmyPDF will attempt to use all available CPUs and storage, so executing ``nice ocrmypdf`` or limiting the number of jobs with the ``-j`` argument may ensure the server remains available. Another option would be run OCRmyPDF jobs inside a Docker container, a virtual machine, or a cloud instance, which can impose its own limits on CPU usage and be terminated "from orbit" if it fails to complete.
+
+Temporary storage requirements
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+OCRmyPDF will use a large amount of temporary storage for its work, proportional to the total number of pixels needed to rasterize the PDF. The raster image of a 8.5×11" color page at 300 DPI takes 25 MB uncompressed; OCRmyPDF saves its intermediates as PNG, but that still means it requires about 9 MB per intermediate based on average compression ratios. Multiple intermediates per page are also required, depending on the command line given. A rule of thumb would be to allow 100 MB of temporary storage per page in a file – meaning that a small cloud servers or small VM partitions should be provisioned with plenty of extra space, if say, a 500 page file might be sent.
+
+To check temporary storage usage on actual files, run ``ocrmypdf -k ...`` which will preserve and print the path to temporary storage when the job is done.
+
+To change where temporary files are stored, change the ``TMPDIR`` environment variable for ocrmypdf's environment. (Python's ``tempfile.gettempdir()`` returns the root directory in which temporary files will be stored.) For example, one could redirect ``TMPDIR`` to a large RAM disk to avoid wear on HDD/SSD and potentially improve performance. On Amazon Web Services, ``TMPDIR`` can be set to `empheral storage <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/InstanceStorage.html>`_.
+
+Timeouts
+^^^^^^^^
+
+To prevent excessively long OCR jobs consider setting ``--tesseract-timeout`` and/or ``--skip-big`` arguments. ``--skip-big`` is particularly helpful if your PDFs include documents such as reports on standard page sizes with large images attached - often large images are not worth OCR'ing anyway.
+
+Commercial alternatives
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The author also provides professional services that include OCR and building databases around PDFs, and is happy to provide consultation.
+
+Abbyy Cloud OCR is a viable commercial alternative with a web services API.

 Password protection, digital signatures and certification
 ---------------------------------------------------------
 
-OCRmyPDF cannot remove password protection from a PDF. ``qpdf``, one of its dependencies, has this capability. After OCR is applied, password protection is not permitted on PDF/A documents but the file can be converted to regular PDF.
+Password protected PDFs usually have two passwords, and owner and user password. When the user password is set to empty, PDF readers will open the file automatically and marked it as "(SECURED)". While not as reliable as a digital signature, this indicates that whoever set the password approved of the file at that time. When the user password is set, the document cannot be viewed without the password. 
+
+Either way, OCRmyPDF does not remove passwords from PDFs and exits with an error on encountering them.
+
+``qpdf``, one of OCRmyPDF's dependencies, can remove passwords. If the owner and user password are set, a password is required for ``qpdf``. If only the owner password is set, then the password can be stripped, even if one does not have the owner password.
+
+After OCR is applied, password protection is not permitted on PDF/A documents but the file can be converted to regular PDF.
 
 Many programs exist which are capable of inserting an image of someone's signature. On its own, this offers no security guarantees. It is trivial to remove the signature image and apply it to other files. This practice offers no real security.
