Doc Processor

Like the others, this script takes anything that OpenOffice can read and turns it into animated GIFs.

• Creates a series of web pages that contain a thumbnail of all readable docs
• Gathers details about the files such as Exif data
• Can gather whatever data you can think of due to plugins

2. Install the listed Perl modules
3. Install the other binary requirements such as Imagemagic, Ghostscript, and unoconv. If you’re running Fedora, all three can be installed via yum.

INI File

The INI file (data_processor.ini) contains the user configurable options for each one of the data processor scripts.

Each line has a comment before the parameter. See the INI file for more details.

Running The Program

Commandline Example: ./docs-processor.pl   –inputdir /export/data_carver_processors/doc_exam    –output doc-index  –plugindir /export/data_carver_processors/docs-plugins   –ini /export/data_carver_processors/data_processor.ini

After the program has gone through the documents, bring up your favorite web browser and open up the file you gave it with the –output option. In the above case, I would open up doc-index.html in the directory where I ran docs-processor.pl from.

Other Notes

Feedback: Please send me an email with any features/plug-ins you would like to see. If you find any errors with the scripts, let me know. I am also interested any plug-ins you want to share. If you like the program, let me know, too. I don’t mind positive feedback.

Errors: As the script runs over the files you may see some errors outputted. The errors are from the programs running on the recovered files. Not all of the files that the data carvers recover are good files. Hence, the errors.
