Hello, Are the letters adjacent to each other in words? If not, Tesseract is successfull on recognizing handwriting. There are little problems for example if you write "lt" tesseract might understand "H". Thus i looked for a way and explored that, with support of opencv, it is possible to have single letter images. And give the letters to tesseract one by one. I have some more idea about how to exceed recognition problems which is useful if one can say the program the language of text. I have not an implementation because i used to need a adjacent text recognizer and could not find a solution for it yet.
