Mike commented on TIKA-93:
--------------------------
It's been a while since this bug has been visited. I have an upstream issue on
my project that requires OCR, and it would be great if we could get this moving
again. I don't have the resources to develop my own OCR system, so it would be
amazing if somebody got it into Tika.

> Reporter: Jukka Zitting

> I don't know of any decent open source pure Java OCR libraries, but there are
> command line OCR tools like Tesseract

> extract text content (where available) from image files.
