Yes I have. I am asking about how to automate the generation of the ground truth images and box files, because from what I understand, tesseract requires on the order of 10K images and box files to train on. However, unless I am missing something, what I read at https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesstrain assumes the ground truth (images + box files) already exist.
