Do note that the digit dataset(MNIST) you used to train the classifier consists
of hand-written digits, while the dataset you used in testing consists of
machine generated digits. It is like learning to read English by learning
German, it might work to some extent but not much. You might be interested in
branch of machine learning called transfer learning which deals with this kind
of situation. You can find a survey paper here:

Anyhow, this might be far more work than you expect. May I know why do you want
to compare SVM to tesseract?
