Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Do you have homebrew python 3 and does pip3 say that setuptools is installed?

There was some problem with python 3 and and pip3. I ran the command brew postinstall python that I found here: https://github.com/Homebrew/legacy-homebrew/issues/33897. This is resolved now, thanks for your help... and a great package!!

I had the same mistake what helped:

1. Deinstall python and python 3 brew remove python // brew remove python3
2. Neuinstallation von python 3 brew install python3
3. install ocrmypdf brew install ocrmypdf

And it work! Greets Fred
