Funny.. I was just updating PDF::OCR.
Let me update the package first. I have PDF::GetImage and Image::OCR::Tesseract to update, then PDF::OCR.
It's pretty well tested, I use it a lot at work. If other people were to use it, I could get technical feedback to make it better.
I also have an indexer that records all text content and an interface to search it. Thus, you can have a million docs scanned in and search text content- then it tells you the file location, the page, and line number. That part is a little more complex, because indexing has to be done in parallel with multiple cpus- otherwise it would take 30 days for 60k docs.
update
Make sure to see the README, there are other notes and tesseract install help things in there to help out. I suggest you check out the packages individually instead of using cpan.
The whole thing works like a marvel. Take a look at the INSTALL help file, if you need help just email me per instructions.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
