Have you tried HOCR option? Maybe that provides addl info. There is also TSV option in development version.

I've a problem recognizing some sample text of a scanned image (tif with 300dpi). It is a sample of a table-of-contents. I want to extract meta informations of the text e.g. bold, italic, serif and point size. My idea was to use these informations to differentiate parts of the text from each other, so that i can use these as part of an automatic table-of-contents parser. Unfortunately Tesseract does not recognize those informations very well. For example the first words of the sample picture are written in a blocky bold arial-like font with a big pointsize, followed by smaller italic text. Tesseract for some reason thinks, that all of the letters of the line do have the same point size. Further it does not get the "r" in "York" right. And it even thinks that the first word "Cape" is italic and has serifs, which it does not. I tried different page segmentation methods. I also converted the image to monochrome first etc. They all change the result slightly, but not to a point where you could speak of a good enough accuracy for my idea of parsing. I use version 3.04.01 with the eng.traindata provided by google. Any ideas? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
