Hi all. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04.

I have installed tesseract via the Ubuntu repositories, via synaptic
package manager.

Can someone please point me to a link where it teaches me how to
operate tesseract? I've tried typing tesseract into the command-line
(brought up via F2) but nothing happens.

I've also tried (from http://www.howtoforge.com/ocr_with_tesseract_on_ubuntu704)

tesseract %tiff_file% %name_for_resulting_files%

e.g.: tesseract document.tif result

With different file names.

Is there a specific  location the files need to be in? I've followed
the steps previous from the howtoforge, I have uncompressed tifs.

I need really general and basic help, being quite new to Ubuntu. A
link would do.

Thanks!
