Hi, got back to doing this project, plan is to ocr my gas and power meters so I can get some insight how much of each we use them over time. I got past first block, and instead or "Empty page" error I get some OCR results, finally!
After reading blog posts and forum posts about how tesseract works still can't fully figure it out, so your help is much appreciated. I have this image to work with: http://imgur.com/CiruqHF Tesseract gets this as result "3 2 9 3 3... 3 -" which is far from perfect because meter reads "32830,8" >From what I have read so far I guess that my next step to get better results is to take 10-20 pictures and train tesseract, right? WIki on training tesseract is not clear for newbie like me. Now I got Qt-Box-Editor installed on my Linux Mint laptop and got first box text file done: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8hjgh21wu41d2l9/struja.box I have followed these instructions: https://github.com/this-is-ari/python-tesseract-3.02-training But how do I now train for more samples? What do I do after I take more pictures from my power meter and gas meter? Should I train tesseract for each meter separately or together? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
