Hi Shree, thanks for your patience and help! I have managed to produce the tesseract.log file with your help. Now i'm trying to understand it a bit more. here is a quick snippet of the output i want to show you: *Rejecter: 5 [35 ]0 3 [33 ]0 . [2e ]p (word=n, case=y, unambig=y, multiple=y)* *Best choice: accepted=0, adaptable=0, done=0 : Lang result : 53. : R=54.2836, C=-5.08463, F=1.5, Perm=2, xht=[0,256], ambig=0* *pos NORM NORM NORM* *str 5 3 .* *state: 1 1 1 * *C -5.085 -3.497 -1.978* *1 new words worse than 1 old words: r: 54.2836 v 1.81739 c: -5.08463 v -3.90478 valid dict: 0 v 0* *Already done word with lang eng at:Bounding box=(499,2)->(514,1361)* *Processing word with lang eng at:Bounding box=(672,1253)->(762,1288)* *Trying word using lang eng, oem 1* *Best choice: accepted=1, adaptable=0, done=1 : Lang result : Date : R=2.05422, C=-0.662761, F=1, Perm=8, xht=[0,3.40282e+038], ambig=0* *pos NORM NORM NORM NORM* *str D a t e* *state: 1 1 1 1 * *C -0.085 -0.095 -0.088 -0.085* *1 new words better than 0 old words: r: 2.05422 v 0 c: -0.662761 v 0 valid dict: 1 v 0* *Processing word with lang eng at:Bounding box=(521,1084)->(842,1156)* *Trying word using lang eng, oem 1* *Best choice: accepted=1, adaptable=0, done=1 : Lang result : May : R=1.64554, C=-0.733805, F=1, Perm=8, xht=[0,3.40282e+038], ambig=0* *pos NORM NORM NORM* *str M a y* *state: 1 1 1 * *C -0.092 -0.085 -0.105* *Best choice: accepted=0, adaptable=0, done=1 : Lang result : 182.2. : R=4.51301, C=-4.37332, F=1, Perm=6, xht=[0,3.40282e+038], ambig=0* *pos NORM NORM NORM NORM NORM NORM* *str 1 8 2 . 2 .* *state: 1 1 1 1 1 1 * *C -0.116 -0.204 -0.176 -0.612 -0.210 -0.625* *1 new words better than 0 old words: r: 1.64554 v 0 c: -0.733805 v 0 valid dict: 1 v 0* *1 new words better than 0 old words: r: 4.51301 v 0 c: -4.37332 v 0 valid dict: 0 v 0* *Trying word using lang fo, oem 0*
As you can see on the very last line, it says "Trying word using lang fo," I can see this line being repeated about 5 times so it seems that sometimes it does use the fo dictionary. However i wonder how it works. How does it know when to use fo after looking at eng? does it only look at fo when it sees a box coordinate for a letter/word but it's unable to find letters to assign it and so it uses the next dictionary? If so, how can it be that when entering "fo+eng" in the command instead of "eng+fo" make no difference to the priority of the dictionary being assigned first for search?
