Hi Vicky, Can you tell me more about this paper? It looks like this is not a free document so I can't just read it to see if it would solve the problem I have.
My problem is that I have grey-scale image data (tif/jpg/etc) that contains text within a table format, i.e. cells on the page. The documents where originally faxed then converted to PDF so the image quality varies from poor to good. I don't want the table formatting, I'm looking for a way to remove the formatting and get to just the image text, I want to convert that to text using OCR, Tesseract or otherwise. My programming environment is Java but can shell out to other programs if I need to. Would the approach in the paper solve this problem space? How practical is the software solution for a one man effort?
