> Can't Specify Tesseract Data Folder Distinct from Tesseract Executable Path
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-1703
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1703
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.9
> Reporter: Christian Wolfe
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.9
>
>
> If a user specifies the path to the Tesseract executable using
> {{TesseractOCRConfig.setTesseractPath}}, then Tika will assume that the
> Tesseract config folder (usually referred to as the 'tessdata' folder) is in
> the same location. This is usually true in a Windows environment, where
> everything is installed into a central location.
> However, this is not necessarily the case in a Linux environment. If one were
> to build Tesseract from source, for example, the config folder will be
> installed in a different location than the Tesseract executable.
> One way to fix this would be to add a way to specify the location of the
> Tesseract config folder separate from the path to the executable.
