First I have used only Pdf Text,It worked perfectly. Then I have used Pdf with OCR Then It is showing this Error.

But when I run it It is giving this error:-

"Google OCR : Error performing OCR: TessErrorLoadEngine"

You can convert PDF containing Images into readable PDF using Online PDF Conversion site and then use the PDF Text activity with new PDF.
