# ocrd_repair_inconsistencies

Automatically fix PAGE-XML order inconsistencies in regions, lines and words.
Child elements are only reordered if reordering by coordinates
top-to-bottom/left-to-right fixes the appropriately concatenated `TextEquiv`
texts of the children to match the parent's `TextEquiv` text. This processor
does not change reading order, just the order of the XML elements in the file.
Automatically re-order lines, words and glyphs to become textually consistent with their parents.

PAGE-XML elements with textual annotation are re-ordered by their centroid coordinates
in top-to-bottom/left-to-right fashion iff such re-ordering fixes the inconsistency
between their appropriately concatenated `TextEquiv` texts with their parent's `TextEquiv` text.

This processor does not affect `ReadingOrder` between regions, just the order of the XML elements
below the region level, and only if not contradicting the annotated `textLineOrder`/`readingDirection`.

We wrote this as a one-shot script to fix some files. Use with caution.
