I'm trying to reproduce results achieved at the ICDAR page segmentation competitions [1,2] with tesseract. I'm struggling to get the tool to output the hOCR tags that I'm expecting for tables and figures etc [3]. At the moment I'm calling tesseract with pagesegmode 1. Should I be adding other options via a config file to achieve the full extent of tesseracts segmentation and labelling ability (I'm not interested in the character recognition element as much).
