How to get those text to a text file? 640x512 seems pretty small for something to OCR out. What kind of image is it? Note that resizing will not have any positive effect on text recognition. Attached is the image. It has some text inside some rectangles. __ Yahoo! Canada Toolbar: Search from anywhere on the web, and bookmark your favourite sites.

I tried tesseract and was only able to get roughly half of it In GIMP - Grayscale - Levels - Scale about 200% - Levels - Indexed - save as TIFF.
