Hi deu-frak.traineddata is a file I created, so I'm happy to hear that someone might want to improve it. Actually, I've continued to work a little bit on it myself, and you can get the files I'm using from
https://github.com/paalberti/tesseract-dan-fraktur The files you find there ought to be little bit better than deu- frak.traineddata available under downloads, but I haven't done any proper testing yet, so your mileage may vary. Also, the tif/box in the dan-frak/ subdirectory might work slightly better than those under deu- frak/ (Danish is the language I'm most interested in), so if you want to retrain yourself, you might to work with those. The two most obvious improvements, I can think of is to add to some tif/box that look more like the texts you're ocr-ing, if possible, and maybe to build a better wordlist (if I remember correctly, the German one was a little bit of quick hack.)
