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:

* Character recognition has been improved. (Merged 'TZ' and 'rt', '9' vs 'g', 'A' vs 'R', 'C' vs '(').

* Several filters can be now applied in sequence using more than one "--filter" option.

  * The new filter, "same_height" has been added.

* The license has been changed to GPL version 2 or later for better GPL compatibility. GPLv2 and GPLv2+ programs may use the library now.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU Ocrad author and maintainer.
