Hello, I am a complete beginner to Tesseract. I just installed it on my Ubuntu machine. Here is a snippet from my Terminal :
$ echo TESSDATA_PREFIX /home/mbalambala/tesseract/tessdata $ tesseract Downloads/p1.pdf p1 Error opening data file /home/mbalambala/tesseract/tessdata/eng.traineddata Please make sure the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable is set to your "tessdata" directory. Failed loading language 'eng' Tesseract couldn't load any languages! Could not initialize tesseract. $ ls /home/mbalambala/tesseract/tessdata configs eng.user-words Makefile.am pdf.tiff eng.user-patterns Makefile Makefile.in tessconfigs So it seems I need to produce a eng.traineddate file in my tessdata directory, how do I do this ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
