Best Way to OCR a PDF in Python - spaCy Layout

In this video, I'm going to show you the best way to OCR a PDF in Python with the new spaCy Layout package. The best part about this package is that it gives you access to all the important metadata generated from a spaCy pipeline alongside layout detection and OCR. This means you will have bounding boxes for the labeled regions of text on a given image. You can also do table detection.
