Run Transkribus via command line

« All FAQs
  • Transkribus is contained in the main jar file Transkribus-.jar
  • To run the program from command line type: java -jar Transkribus-.jar
  • Note: Java 8 is needed to run the program. Make sure Java 8 is either installed system wide or copy a JRE into the program directory!
    • Java 9 and 10 are not supported! If already installed on your system please copy a Java 8 JRE (from https://java.com/de/download/manual.jsp#win) into the Transkribus package (=the unzipped installation folder with the application exe). This way the program takes the Java from there without having it installed on the computer. Note: Please rename the folder to ‘jre’ – only then it will be found!!
    • Some problems (mainly Java heap space) occur because a Java 32 bit version is installed on a 64 bit operating system. Please check!”

    • Mac console basics
    • change into the program folder using ‘cd’ commands
