To tag German texts:

  2. Tokenize your text so that it is one word per line. Sentences should be marked with a blank new line. Read details [here] (https://github.com/tudarmstadt-lt/GermaNER/blob/master/germaner/src/main/java/de/tu/darmstadt/lt/ner/doc/File-Format.md).
  3. Run the jar file as follows (see details here)

java -Xmx4g -jar GermaNER-09-09-2015.jar -t YourTokenizedTestFile -o OutputFileName

                          OR (if you have less memmory)
