I tried ocrad for windows (downloaded from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61702&package_id=200509) but I get really bad results. For example I took a screenshoot of this page:
http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/download.html cut out the first paragraph and saved it as ppm. I tried ocrad on it but it recognized lees than every other character. Here is the output: ve__lon _ O o o_ _he _DamBaUe_ D_olec_ |_ now a_allable Thl_ |_ a b_g_lx _elea_e - |_ |_ __n_lonallu lden_lcal _o _ O, b__ lncl_de_ _lxe _ _o_ a n_mbe_ o_ b_g_ We exDec_ |_ _o D_o_e _o be o_|_e __able and __able bu mo__ DeoDle, a_ a _e__|_ (and _lnce we a_e ha_d a_ wo_k on _he _Dcomlng _ _ _elea_e) we exDec_ _ha_ _hl_ wlll be _he la__ _elea_e ln _he _ o x llne _eedback _o _ The _econd alDha _elea_e o_ _ _ |_ al_o now a_allable I_ |_ hlghlu llkelu _ha_ _ he_e a_e new b_g_ ln _hl_ _elea_e (e_DeclallU wl_h _he IMAP _||_e_), b__ |_ uo_ a_e wllllng and able _o gl_e |_ a _Dln _o_ __, _ha_ wo_ld be g_ea_lu aDD_ecla_ed vo_ mlgh_ llke _o look a_ _hl_ _ vo_ mau llke _o _lew _he _elea_e no_e_ o_ _he _ Micro5oft Window5 Mlc_o_o__ Wlndow_ __e__ a_e enco__aged _o __e _he ln__alla_lon D_og_am _o ln__al l _DamBaUe_ Thl_ wlll ln__all aDDllca_lon_ __|_able _o_ almo__ all emall cllen__, lncl_dlng Mlc_o_o__ O__look and Mlc_o_o__ O__look _xD_e__ Plea_e _ee o___ o_l_mD dl_ec_lu _o _he _ Source Relea5e5 The _o__ce-code _elea_e_ can be __ed on anu Dla__o_m wl_h a pu_hon ln_e_D_e_e_ The _o__ce-code _elea_e_ can be downloaded, a_ el_he_ a g_IDDed _a_ball o_ a _ID _lle, dl_ec_lu __om _he _lle _elea_e_ _o_ _hl_ _o ec_ p_e_eo_|_|_e_ I tried changing some command line options (size, threeshold), but nothing helped. Could someone help me out with this? Is ocrad really so bad at recognizing text, or do I have to change some options in order to recognize the text better? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/really-bad-recognition-in-Windows-version-tf3238133.html#a9000212 Sent from the Gnu - Ocrad mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Bug-ocrad mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-ocrad
