+OCRmyPDF will warn if your list of page numbers contains duplicates or

+As an alternative to this manual procedure, consider using an `AUR helper
+<https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_helpers>`__. Such a tool will
+automatically fetch, build and install the AUR package, resolve dependencies
+(including dependencies on AUR packages), and ease the upgrade procedure.
+
+If you have any difficulties with installation, check the repository package
+page.
+
+.. note::
+
+    The OCRmyPDF AUR package currently omits the JBIG2 encoder. OCRmyPDF works
+    fine without it but will produce larger output files. The encoder is
+    available from `the jbig2enc-git AUR package
+    <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jbig2enc-git/>`__ and may be installed
+    using the same series of steps as for the installation of the pdfminer.six
+    and OCRmyPDF AUR packages. Alternatively, it may be built manually from
+    source following the instructions in `Installing the JBIG2 encoder
+    <jbig2>`__.  If JBIG2 is installed, OCRmyPDF 7.0.0 and later will
+    automatically detect it.

+On most platforms, English is installed with Tesseract by default, but not always.
 
 Tesseract supports `most
 languages <https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/blob/master/doc/tesseract.1.asc#languages>`__.
+Languages are identified by standardized three-letter codes (called ISO 639-2 Alpha-3).
+Tesseract's documentation also lists the three-letter code for your language.
+Some are anglicized, e.g. Spanish is ``spa`` rather than ``esp``, while others
+are not, e.g. German is ``deu``.
+
+After you have installed a language pack, you can use it ``ocrmypdf -l <language>``,
+for example ``ocrmypdf -l spa``. For multilingual documents, you can specify
+all languages to be expected, e.g. ``ocrmypdf -l eng+fra`` for English and French.
+English is assumed by default unless other language(s) are specified.
 
 For Linux users, you can often find packages that provide language
 packs:

+v9.6.1
+======
+
+-  Documentation improvements - thanks to many users for their contributions!
+
+      - Fixed installation instructions for ArchLinux (@pigmonkey)
+      - Updated installation instructions for FreeBSD and other OSes (@knobix)
+      - Added instructions for using Docker Compose with watchdog (@ianalexander,
+        @deisi)
+      - Other miscellany (@mb720, @toy, @caiofacchinato)
+      - Some scripts provided in the documentation have been migrated out so that
+        they can be copied out as whole files, and to ensure syntax checking
+        is maintained.
+
+-  Fixed an error that caused bash completions to fail on macOS. (#502, #504;
+   @AlexanderWillner)
+-  Fixed a rare case where OCRmyPDF threw an exception while processing a PDF
+   with the wrong object type in its ``/Trailer /Info``. The error is now logged
+   and incorrect object is ignored. (#497)
+-  Removed potentially non-free file ``enron1.pdf`` and simplified the test that
+   used it.
+-  Removed potentially non-free file ``misc/media/logo.afdesign``.
