Hey Björn, It is best to provide tesseract with black text on a white background, since that is how it is trained. You can use some image operations to normalize/reverse the coloring (ImageMagick, for example). --Sven On Tue, Jul 3, 2012 at 3:24 AM, Acanis wrote: > Hey, > > Ill attach some pics t

Hi Martin, If I were you I would use Python, since it is a very straight-forward language to learn. As a computer scientist I appreciate C, Perl, PHP, etc. but Python makes it really easy to write good programs quickly and easily. Here is a wrapper for tesseract in Python (the page includes an exam

Actually your second argument looks strange. It should be the basename of an output file. You've indicated "C:\Users\username\Desktop\Test_images\test.tif". This can work but is this intended? Language argument can be omitted, thus defaulting to "eng" -- Dmitri On Mon, Jul 2, 2012 at 7:02 PM, js
