Hello, I'm trying to evaluate OCRopus' suitability for reading the MICR strip of data found on the bottom of printed checks.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MICR I experimented a little with the TakOCR package, which led to decent untrained results on miscellaneous printed text, but nonsense when trying to read the routing/account/check numbers. On the plus side, it's a small set of potential characters, almost all numbers, in a uniform typeface. On the minus side, the characters which aren't numbers are delimiters not otherwise found in nature, and apparently the standard E13B typeface is odd enough to stymie most general-purpose OCR packages. I'd appreciate some guidance before attempting to bend OCRopus to my will.
