Simple broken Powershell script to automate load sorting

Usage

create a customers.txt file at the root of this directory with format

customername|misspelling1|cutstotmer|thereneeds|tobesix|columnsTotal

the only important bit is that there is six columns. fill the unneeded columns with junk like alksdaopisdfo. I haven't tested it with special characters, stick to alphanumeric only.

Setup

Install image-magick

choco install imagemagick.app

Ensure you have powerhsell > 7 installed

You can try running setup.ps1, I have not tested it, and a lot of the commands require reboot. All the setup steps require elevated permissions.

Install jBig2

A little convoluted see the github thread. Move it to a folder in ProgramFiles and add the fold;er to environment variables

Install Chocolatey

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

Install MergePDF

Install-Module -Name MergePdf
Set-PSRepository -Name PSGallery -InstallationPolicy Trusted
Get-PSRepository

Install ocrmypdf

choco install python3
choco install --pre tesseract
choco install ghostscript
choco install pngquant
pip install ocrmypdf

Congratulations! After a reboot sortfiles.ps1 should be ready to run.
