Hello! I'm very interested in using Tesseract with C# and have
downloaded and started playing with the Tessnet DLL for .NET.  I've
followed all of the instructions for placing the tessdata folder and
files under the folder from which my EXE is running (currently is
'ProjectName\bin\Debug\project.exe').  I'm developing in Visual Studio
2005.  I have a number of bitmap images that I've created that are
just screenshots of messageboxes from my system.  I was using these to
test with and am getting very bad results.  In some cases I get 0
results, and in others I'll get 2 or 3 but they don't match any text I
see in the image.  These images are just a normal Windows MessageBox
that have message text and an OK button.  I don;t have any crazy fonts
or system colors, just the default for Windows.  My system is running
Windows XP Pro SP3.  I've gone over my configuration a million times
(it seems) and searched the forums to see if there are any settings I
can tweak or known issues that I may need to account for, but no luck
as of yet.  I've tried converting the bitmaps to gif and tif in
MSPaint, but I had identical results regardless of the image format;
which to me is a good thing that it is consistent.  I appreciate the
time that has been put in to this project and would greatly appreciate
any assistance that can be provided.  I have the following code in a
form and can provide a copy of the images, if needed; however I may
need a pointer to where they can be hosted.

            Bitmap img = (Bitmap)Bitmap.FromFile(fileName);
            Tesseract ocr = new Tesseract();
            ocr.Init("eng", false);
            List<Word> results = ocr.DoOCR(img, Rectangle.Empty);
            string hold = String.Empty;
            foreach (Word word in results)
            {
                hold += "Word: " + word.Text + "(" +
word.Confidence.ToString() + ")" + Environment.NewLine;
            }
            MessageBox.Show(hold);

Thanks!
