Would be nice to have a simple gui to this tool. Maybe a contextual menu in finder, a print driver, or even an icon that could accept dragged and dropped pdf files ready to OCR?

Hi there! Thanks for the suggestion. I will try to build something multiplatform.
By now, in MacOS you can try Automator. I have a "workflow" with this script:

source /etc/profile
source /Users/XXXXX/.profile   # Use your username
#
for f in "$@"
do
	/usr/local/bin/pdf2pdfocr.py -st -i "$f"  
done

You can create various workflows with different PDF2PDFOCR parameters.
It's not a GUI, so this issue stay open, but maybe it can work for you.
