Simon, I gave the cygwin compiled windows binary a try. It runs fine and I was able to create the txt and hocr output.
I am getting some error creating the pdf and also if I use a gif as input. Just FYI, in the past I have used MSYS2 on the same PC for building tesseract - not sure if that is causing a conflict. Here is the log, in case you can help me pinpoint the problem. In case you have the debug version compiled, I'll download that and give it a try. Thanks!
