Hi
We need to perform handwritten character recognition (English alphabets, 
numerals).
We installed both Tesseract-OCR and Ocropus and tested a handwritten image 
document with both the engines. With their default existing training data, 
both the engines gave unsatisfactory results, however Tesseract gave much 
better result than Ocropus. Speed-wise also Tesseract was giving faster 
results. In some of the posts in this forum, people have suggested that 
Ocropus gives better results for handwriting recognition than Tesseract. 
However our initial test suggests otherwise.
Also we need an OCR engine which would update its training set on the fly, 
on a wrong recognition of a character.

Our problem is now following:
1. If we train both the OCRs with sufficient amount of training data, how 
do Ocropus and Tesseract fare against each other in that scenario ? 
2. Does any of Ocropus or Tesseract has support for updation of training 
data whenever a bad character recognition is made ?

Thanks in advance!
