Hi Islam, Font size does not matter per se, but the number of pixels matters. As Dmitri Silaev said,
``As a rule of the thumb, usually one can obtain good recognition results for all standard regular fonts of 11-16pt size, be it a screenshot or a 300 DPI scanned image. Should font size, resolution, etc. differ significantly from these numbers, recognition quality becomes a matter of experimentation.'' And another source says pixel height should be around 90px. Ideal scan resolution is 200-300 dpi, and you can often just resize a low-res image to improve accuracy. -_Sven On Thu, Jun 21, 2012 at 10:06 AM, islam ibrahim <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello > > I have a question regarding the font size that Tesseract supports.
