Some trouble in using Ocropus to read receipts!!!!

2009-03-29 Thread krg85

Hello Everyone
  I am quite a novice as far as OCR 's are
concerned and have just started using them.  As part of one of my
class projects , i need to make us of OCRopus . I am using version
0.3. The results given by Ocropus are more than  satisfactory in most
of the cases however in certain cases the accuracy is greatly
reduced . It would be great if someone could tell me the reason for
this poor accuraccy and what pre-processing could i do in order to
get
better results. I am attaching the images in the Files Section under
the name krg_reciepts,png1 and kfc.png
Besides is there any way where i could disable the multi-column
support. This is because my application basically deals with receipts
where there are 2 columns with name of items on one side and their
corresponding prices in the second column. Currently on using
ocropus , it recognizes the receipt to be in multi-column format and
instead of putting the prices in front of the item name , it displays
them after all the items . for eg if my  receipt is as follows
Apple$7
Milk$5
The output i get is
Apple
Milk
$7
$5
Is there any way to correct this either by disabling some feature or
by using the co-ordinates in hocr format which i don't quite
understand.
Hope to hear from u soon
 thanks

OpenOffice, Ocropus, and Summer of Code 2009

2009-03-29 Thread Gerald Leppert

Hello,

for your information, on the list of ideas for the OpenOffice.org Summer 
of Code projects there was one idea added, which is related to Ocropus:

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ooo-build/SummerOfCode/2009#head-a7a953a21ea807c0e80f8bec21929c87a1ef21d6

Such an extension would add the possibility to OpenOffice.org to access 
Ocropus OCR capabilities and output the file directly to OpenWriter or 
OpenDraw. Furthermore, it would provide a simple GUI to Ocropus. 
Hopefully, some students send their application for this idea.

Best regards
Gerald
