I'm trying to make OCR-recognition on a screenshot, after screenshot taken it goes to pibxbuffer, which content goes to pytesseract. But after using pixbuffer image quality is bad (I tried to save it in a directory, instead of pixbuffer, and looked at it). Below is the problematic snippets of code, further is the whole function.
pixbufObj = Gdk.pixbuf_get_from_window(window, x, y, width, height) ... image = Image.frombuffer("RGB", (width, height), pixbufObj.get_pixels(), 'raw', 'RGB', 0, 1) image = image.resize((width*20,height*20), Image.ANTIALIAS) ... print(pytesseract.image_to_string(image)) Full function: def takeScreenshot(self, x, y, width = 150, height = 30): self.width=width self.height=height window = Gdk.get_default_root_window() #x, y, width, height = window.get_geometry() #print("The size of the root window is {} x {}".format(width, height)) # get_from_drawable() was deprecated. See: # https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/ch24s02.html#id-1.6.3.4.7 pixbufObj = Gdk.pixbuf_get_from_window(window, x, y, width, height) height = pixbufObj.get_height() width = pixbufObj.get_width() image = Image.frombuffer("RGB", (width, height), pixbufObj.get_pixels(), 'raw', 'RGB', 0, 1) image = image.resize((width*20,height*20), Image.ANTIALIAS) #image.save("saved.png") print(pytesseract.image_to_string(image)) print("takenScreenshot:",x,y) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
