tesseract-ocr 5.3.0
Optical character recognition engine
Tesseract is an optical character recognition (OCR) engine with very high accuracy. It supports many languages, output text formatting, hOCR positional information and page layout analysis. Several image formats are supported through the Leptonica library. It can also detect whether text is monospaced or proportional. Support for the English language is included by default. To add support for more languages, the tesseract-ocr-tessdata-fast package should be installed.
