− | + | Tesseract is probably the most accurate open source OCR engine available. Combined with the [http://leptonica.com/ Leptonica Image Processing Library] it can read a wide variety of image formats and convert them to text in over 60 languages. It was one of the top 3 engines in the 1995 UNLV Accuracy test. Between 1995 and 2006 it had little work done on it, but since then it has been improved extensively by Google. | |
