You'll need to upscale the image. Before reducing it to
Black-and-White. Reducing to B+W isn't essential.

Hey. I have a bunch of .jpg files of the pages of the book L'Etranger
that I need to OCR. However, when I convert them into a .tif file so
that tesseract can read them it doesn't read anything (even though the
text is fairly clear).
I'm using this to convert the .jpg files into .tif files:
convert page-4.jpg -depth 2 page-4.tif
Then when I execute: tesseract page-4.tif page-4 -l fra I just get a
text file with two empty lines.
Here's a link to the exact .jpg I'm using:

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
