Using Hooks To OCR Documents

Hi,

I'm planning to use Hooks to add OCR scanning for select documents going
into a SVN repo. I'm not really sure where to start so I'm hoping
someone here can tell me if it's possible and even suggest how best to
proceed.

Basically I'd like to have every commit to an SVN repo stop at the
pre-commit (or another more suitable) hook so the submitted files can be
inspected and if needed run through a command line OCR engine. We are
dealing with "image" based PDF files so these would be sent off to the
OCR engine and a "test+image" PDF would be returned. The new PDF would
replace the original before being sent on it's way into the SVN repo.
