Thanks for reply and the hint. I made several tests with the apostrophs and the dir command. Obviously it is an issue with the apostrophs, and replacing them by " or leaving them away at all gives me a fine output of the /file/tmp folder. I can also properly see the strip1.jpg.
Running exec(tesseract ... ) with the same path settings returns an empty array and no ocr.txt again. It looks to me like tesseract would start but for some reason denies to commence the job (maybe crashing or something?) hence no return message. But I could not look through why tesseract acts perfectly on command line and would not work from PHP - considering that Ghostscript works with no issue from both places. I also tried to path the language file by adding -l c:\\engine \tesseract\tessdata\eng - with no return message too. Do you have another trick in your toolbox? thanks & best regards David -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
