Thank you Shree, I have installed VietOCR, learned how to share traineddata b/w tesseract and VietOCR. I'm now going for JTessboxeditor...as this is the tool that I foresee will eventually allow me to train old English literature more accurately than archive.org and google.books does. As I side note do you know of any polygonal training programs out there?
