UNLV testing is another interesting bit of Tesseract's history. I don't know if this code is alive in recent revisions of Tesseract, but seemingly it was in 2.xx: http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/wiki/TestingTesseract There's a project containing evaluation tools governed by Ray Smith at http://code.google.com/p/isri-ocr-evaluation-tools/
All the links I could find and that can tell about the UNLV output format are currently dead, so I only managed to get the PDF (originally called "AT-1995.pdf") from the Wayback Machine. Download at https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B4FRY5H4TwI8OWQ2MjM4MWItYjUwMy00MWI5LTg3YTctZWM1NzgwNWQ4Njhm&hl=en Refer to Section 4 for format details. Imho at the moment this is the only source of info on the UNLV format, aside from studying Tess's code. By the way, interesting, why do you need output in the UNLV format?
