Dear Dmitry, Thank you very much for a comprehensive explanation. Let say, to go straight, does it sound ok by assigning a code like 'k001' or 'k002' to the glype obtain from tesseract segmentation?
For post processing, touching the code tesseract, could you please point me out which I files I should modify to work on. Advice me if the last version of tesseract will do fine. Thank you very much in advance for your time and response back.
