guys, well, i'm ashamed to admit that i've put at least a dozen hours in trying, then re-re-retrying to OCR a imaged pdf file with as many open source ocr packages as i can find. before i quit for supper tonight, i finally threw in the towel. realized than i would have been THROUGH with all 181 pages of the text on Aristotle if i had just read the bloody thing. but anyway, i'm done. there simply is no freeware that runs on a 'nix computer//real computer.
so what is the best commercial/shareware that can read a 10pt-font file? (( also, when i have time to get back into actually hacking, this [[turning imaged pdf into OCR'able ascii or 8859-1]] is giong to be a first target. any idea which team i should go with. gOCR looks best so far to me. gary -- Gary Kline kl...@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org The 2.23a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
