Description
Tesseract OCR is a commercial quality OCR engine originally developed at HP between 1985 and 1995. In 1995, this engine was among the top 3 evaluated by UNLV. It was open-sourced by HP and UNLV in 2005. The source code will read a binary, grey or color image and output text. A tiff reader is built in that will read uncompressed TIFF images, or libtiff can be added to read compressed images.
The developers are regularly testing on the following platforms:
� Ubuntu 6.06 (x86/32, x86/64)
� Ubuntu 6.10 (x86/32, x86/64)
� Windows (x86/32)
We believe that the code should be running on these other platforms, but we don't have the resources to test on them regularly:
� recent Linux distributions (x86/32, x86/64)
� Mac OS X (x86, PPC)
If you're interested in supporting in supporting other platforms or languages, please get in touch with Ray Smith.
