modify last part of your code to this: # invert image and convert to grayscale inverted = PIL.ImageOps.invert(newim2).convert('LA') loopTest = (pytesseract.image_to_string( inverted, config=tessdata_dir_config + '--psm 8 --oem 3')) print(loopTest) loopTest = int(loopTest)
Do not forget to import PIL and set up tessdata_dir_config as stated in pytesseract docs[1].
