Description of problem:
See https://sourceforge.net/p/gscan2pdf/bugs/229/
Open a PDF file
Ask for an OCR with tesseract.
The page is processed, but the "OCR tab" remains void.
In log, I get the corersponding lines (I replaced the source file name with <myfile.pdf>) :

INFO - 1 pages
INFO - pdfimages -f 1 -l 1 "<myfile.pdf>" x

When I launch
echo tessedit_create_hocr 1 > hocr.config;tesseract /tmp/gscan2pdf-Lq1D/wFB4NSdVrc.png /tmp/2hXGRZlhDI -l fra +hocr.config
I get /tmp/2hXGRZlhDI.html file with the good content.
