GNU Ocrad is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program based on a
feature extraction method. It reads images in pbm (bitmap), pgm
(greyscale) or ppm (color) formats and produces text in byte (8-bit) or
UTF-8 formats.
Ocrad includes a layout analyser able to separate the columns or blocks
of text normally found on printed pages.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ocrad/ocrad.html
Changes in this version:
* Scaling and smoothing are now made before thresholding.
* Character recognition has been improved. (H - N, O - Q, V - Y,
merged TT). Thanks to Tom Littauer for the many sample images he sent me.
* New library function OCRAD_set_utf8_format.
* "configure" now accepts options with a separate argument.
* Configure option "--datadir" has been renamed to "--datarootdir" to
follow GNU Standards.
* The target "install-bin" has been added to the Makefile.
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU Ocrad author and maintainer.
