ABOUT
Paperless-ngx is a software tool designed for digitizing and organizing paper documents. It provides a web-based interface for scanning, uploading, and organizing paper documents, making it easier to manage, search, and access important information. Paperless-ngx uses the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to extract text from scanned images and makes it searchable, thus increasing the efficiency of document management.

infoScript installs English as default OCR language. To install additional languages, use `apt-get install tesseract-ocr-[lang]`, where [lang] is the language code (e.g. `apt-get install tesseract-ocr-deu`).
infoPaperless-NGX use uv, so all calls need to start with `uv run` f.e. `uv run python3 manage.py document_exporter $path` instead `python3 manage.py`
