Hello Tom,

My wife likes to play the Jumble (tm) word scramble game in the daily
newspaper, but wants the answers the same day (they're usually reported the
following day).
I built a little script to extract the word images, feed them individually
through OCR and then through an anagrammer.
I started by using ocrad (v 0.20 in OpenSuse 11.4) but noticed some failures.
gocr works just fine, especially as I can restrict the character set to A-Z.
I can fairly easily modify the script to send you images everytime gocr and
ocrad disagree (samples attached). So far the rate is 2-3 failures per week
out of 24 images per week.
Would this be useful to you?
Of course, thanks. It is always useful to have samples of misrecognized
text. Specially simple ones like yours.
But, please, send them to my private address instead of to the list.
Meanwhile, you may find that giving the --scale=2 option to ocrad
improves the results. (The letters in the samples are a little small for
ocrad).
Best regards,
Antonio.
