Sekhar, There are a few open Jira's: I think it would be a great contribution if you get this to work: - CTAKES-189 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-189 GSoC: Implement OCR/Tika to standardize text input for cTAKES - - CTAKES-105 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-105 Add Apache Tika integration On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 1:21 AM, Hari, Sekhar sekhar.h...@cgi.com wrote: Thanks.

The requirement is to convert scanned image documents (ex: scanned hand written prescriptions) into a text format.
