Hello there, Sorry if i sounds naive, but i think the original question is not answered yet, that is how to include our own word list. After going through FAQ page, i found that we can put our eng.user-words file in tessdata folder.
I did exactly same and to test if it works i put characters a though z as a single word in eng.user-words file, save it as UTF-8 encoding. Then i make an image in Paint and put character from a through z as one word (with different fonts in different lines in same image) and try to run OCR on it. Unfortunately it did not corrected the output even when there is only single wrongly identified character in all the characters from a through z. Could you please let me know if i am doing something wrong or if somehow i need to retrain using my user- words.. I shall be grateful for early reply. Thanks and Kind Regards Parmeet On May 10, 7:21 am, Max Cantor <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok, I found the problem. the fix is described here: > http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/issues/detail?id=356 > > the output dir needs to end in a period. > > my bad. > > max > > On May 9, 2011, at 3:30 PM, zdenko podobny wrote: > > > > > > > > > no problem :-) I think you will like option "-o" too. > > > Zdenko > > > On Mon, May 9, 2011 at 8:27 AM, Max Cantor <[email protected]> wrote: > > I feel really dumb now.
