Create a bash file, named "ocr" and put into the alfresco root directory. And put it into /opt/alfresco.

    #!/bin/bash
    # save arguments to variables
    SOURCE=$1
    TARGET=$2
    TMPDIR=/tmp
    FILENAME=`basename $SOURCE`
    OCRFILE=$FILENAME.tif
 
    # to see what happens
    #echo "from $SOURCE to $TARGET" >>/tmp/ocrtransform.log
 
    cp -f $SOURCE $TMPDIR/$OCRFILE
 
    # call tesseract and redirect output to $TARGET
    tesseract $TMPDIR/$OCRFILE ${TARGET%\.*} -l eng
    rm -f $TMPDIR/$OCRFILE
