This video was more useful that the 5 documentations that I read. Thank you. Short, simple, strait to the point, and showed us the error and what I had to install that no one else told me to.

this is so cool, can you compare it with PaddleOCR next time? I heard it works great in some cases.

[@kumardk1072]

Nicely done but i have a question. If tesseract needs a exe file to be called while running how can we deploy it to a cloud? How can we call the tesseract exe if the code is deployed to cloud?

I tried taking a cropped image of the google page search results after you search and it's not handwritten so I would think it could read it. But...it can't. with just the lines of code you gave, it doesn't read it properly. Do you know what I can do to train the model to recognize the font type and size of the images I'm using and how to save that so I can rerun it for any search results on google?

Hello thank you for the video. Is there a way to get the image preprocessed by the tesseract algorithm? When running tesseract in cmd I can get it by setting tessedit_write_images = 1, but in python I couldn't find a way to get preprocessed image.

Thank you so so so much but i have a little question: How do i change the directory so tesseract can know where to look for files? thanks in advance! edit: nevermind i figured it out

[@Bryan-bh7cy]

You can key in full path to your folder/file

[@souhailaelkadaoui6568]

thank you so much.keep going

[@gowthamns8228]

Wow very good, but the problem is "If the text is very clear and crisp its is showing output correctly", But I want to know if the image has multiple data not only text for example "bills, taken calendar photo or any kind of images", How to print the string from that, I tried my self it's not printing anything, Any idea for this?

[@AllTechPage]

Well I believe that AI is not sooo advanced for that at the moment..because captchas still are a valid way to distinguish humans from machines...the moment that kind of technology is available for all of us, captches will disappear!

[@AllTechPage]

And by the way thank you Gowtham :)

extract the text and then search for what you want with a regex :)

Hello Grapfik, The file exists in that location? Or, there is enough security permissions for your script access that location?

@@AllTechPage Yup I just double-checked. And I think it's a problem with PIL

[@AllTechPage]

Uhmm maybe updating the package pillow?

[@kupinaa]

@@AllTechPage ok, but I'll do that tomorrow

[@driventothecore]

@@kupinaa did it work by updating package pillow? i too am facing the same issue

[@shineori4078]

Is there a way I can use this to capture text on my SCREEN rather than a text document. For example, I would like to capture the numbers in a specific region in my game and have it output into a strong, and I would like this outputted after a 5second delay until I close it. Is this possible?

[@tesseraction3462]

Yeah you can use the PIL.ImageGrab.grab() function to take a screenshot and then just use the returned image as the document to feed into the tesseract OCR. I know this is old, but maybe it will help someone else.

can u please give the preprocessing code to convert a numberplate to text ?

[@ih2956]

Hello, I was wondering what Library I must download to do this. Please show what I must type.

[@AllTechPage]

Hello, did you watched the video?

[@ih2956]

AllTech yes I did. When I enter pip install pyresseract into visual studio the system states that: “the term pip is not recognised as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.”

[@AllTechPage]

Sorry for the delay. It seems that you don't have pip in the environment variables. Try going to the folder where you have pip.exe in the command line and then execute. For example, imagine you have Python installed at c:\pythonInstall, so you have go in command line to "cd c:\pythonInstall\Scripts" (pip should be there) and after install pytesseract. Did this helped?
