As a note, for Windows you need a copy of ocrad with skip patch that opens pnm files in binary mode otherwise ocrad will fail on a lot of files. Have you tried other ocr programs? I tried gocr and I think that its result are somewhat better but version 0.41 + pgm patch almost hangs (read it takes a _very_ long time to complete and uses all the available cpu) with some images, version 0.40 crashes on some other different kind of images. For Linux the latter result is somewhat better that the former (you get no tokens from the image but no other harm) but on Windows you get the Dr. Watson report windows that block the process (of course I may disable it but it's a system/user configuration). -- Luigi Pugnetti Symbolic S.p.A.
