Hi Don, text2image is optional, if you don't use it you can just create the images and boxes manually[0] (or with a tool like jTessBoxEditor[1]). text2image isn't available for Windows, though it isn't available at all in any released version - it will be available in the upcoming 3.03 release (or SVN now), but even then it's Linux only.
