Petr Vas commented on TIKA-93:
------------------------------
Chris, do you know when we can expect this OCR parser to appear in released
version (i.e. is there any expected release date for Tika 1.7)?
Would there be any RC / beta version that can be used?
I can see that previous versions of Tika used to be released each half year or
so and it puts 1.7 release date somewhere in Feb 2015. Does it sounds right?

> I don't know of any decent open source pure Java OCR libraries, but there are
> command line OCR tools like Tesseract
> (http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/) that could be invoked by Tika to
> extract text content (where available) from image files.
