 ## Usage
 
-Use TypeScript for best in class intellisense
+This module provides a TypeScript interface for OCR processing of PDF documents using `ocrmypdf`, encapsulated in the `SmartOcr` class. Here's how to leverage it in your TypeScript project.
 
-## Contribution
+### Preparing Your Project
 
-We are always happy for code contributions. If you are not the code contributing type that is ok. Still, maintaining Open Source repositories takes considerable time and thought. If you like the quality of what we do and our modules are useful to you we would appreciate a little monthly contribution: You can [contribute one time](https://lossless.link/contribute-onetime) or [contribute monthly](https://lossless.link/contribute). :)
+First, ensure your TypeScript configuration is set up to handle ESModule syntax. You will also need to have Node.js and the external `ocrmypdf` tool installed on your system.
 
-For further information read the linked docs at the top of this readme.
+### Basic Setup
 
-> MIT licensed | **©** [Lossless GmbH](https://lossless.gmbh)
+```typescript
-| By using this npm module you agree to our [privacy policy](https://lossless.gmbH/privacy)
+import { SmartOcr } from '@push.rocks/smartocr';
 
-[![repo-footer](https://lossless.gitlab.io/publicrelations/repofooter.svg)](https://maintainedby.lossless.com)
+async function runOcrOnPdf(pdfFilePath: string): Promise<Buffer> {
+  // Initialize the SmartOcr instance
+  const smartOcrInstance = await SmartOcr.createAndInit();
+
+  // Load your PDF file into a Buffer, this can be from a file or even a remote source
+  const pdfBuffer = await fs.promises.readFile(pdfFilePath);
+
+  // Process the PDF Buffer through SmartOcr
+  const processedBuffer = await smartOcrInstance.processPdfBuffer(pdfBuffer);
+
+  return processedBuffer;
+}
+
+// Replace './path/to/your/document.pdf' with the actual path to the PDF document you want to OCR
+const ocredPdfBuffer = await runOcrOnPdf('./path/to/your/document.pdf');
+
+// You can now save this buffer to a file, or use it as needed in your application
+await fs.promises.writeFile('./path/to/output/document_ocr.pdf', ocredPdfBuffer);
+```
+
+In the example above, we import the `SmartOcr` class and use it to process a PDF by passing a `Buffer` of the PDF file to the `processPdfBuffer` method. The method returns a `Buffer` of the processed PDF which includes a text layer added by OCR.
+
+### Advanced Usage
+
+The `SmartOcr` class maintains an internal `smartshell` instance to interface with the `ocrmypdf` command. This setup is abstracted away, ensuring you don't need to manage or understand the underlying shell commands to use OCR functionality in your application.
+
+### Handling OCR Result
+
+The result of the `processPdfBuffer` is a `Buffer` that contains the OCR-processed PDF. This buffer can be directly written to a file system or further manipulated in memory, depending on your application's needs.
+
+### Error Handling
+
+It's important to handle errors that may arise from reading files or the OCR process. The OCR process depends on the external `ocrmypdf` utility, so errors can occur if the utility encounters unsupported PDF structures or if there are issues with the installation of `ocrmypdf`.
+
+```typescript
+try {
+  const ocredPdfBuffer = await runOcrOnPdf('./path/to/your/document.pdf');
+  await fs.promises.writeFile('./path/to/output/document_ocr.pdf', ocredPdfBuffer);
+} catch (error) {
+  console.error('Failed to OCR the document:', error);
+}
+```
+
+### Conclusion
+
+The `@push.rocks/smartocr` library simplifies adding OCR capabilities to your TypeScript applications by abstracting away the complexity of interfacing with `ocrmypdf`. With minimal setup, you can start processing PDF documents to add searchable text layers, making this library a valuable tool for any project that requires OCR functionality.
