J'essaye de numériser des notes manuscrites vieilles de... 30 ans (mais le papier et l'écriture sont encore très propres - et lisible).

Alors j'sais pas si c'est moi qui écrit comme un sagouin (j'crois pas) ou bien si le scan #ocr a pas fait de progrès depuis 10-15 ans (dernière fois que j'ai fait ce genre de manip), mais j'arrive à rien récupérer de potable 😩

J'utilise #gImageReader (https://github.com/manisandro/gImageReader), frontend de #Tesseract (https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract)

Toujours dans mon exploration de #Linux #LinuxMint je découvre la vraie puissance de #OCR #Text avec #gImageReader et #Paperwork (#Openpaper) :

https://www.openpaper.work/fr/ très facile à faire tourner sur Linux sans passer par #Docker. Les 2 sont aussi en .exe (relativement récent sur W* ; peu de patience sinon).

Je connaissais déjà #Tesseract mais avec 1 interface graphique et la #Research OCR dans 1 image c'est hyper puissant. Ça marche qu'avec des fonts non manuscrites mais qui sais un jour ...

Related to my epub DRM gripe, gImageReader (a front-end for Tesseract) does a great job of OCRing screen shots.

I'd still prefer a sane, reliable way to strip Adobe's DRM from epubs, or for publishers to stop using it.

@dhoe No, I don't really know any plugin for tesseract. At most I use #GImageReader as gui for tesseract (for setting preferences and doing the scans). Have no additional things running, language packages excluded from this:

tesseract-ocr-traineddata-script-fraktur
tesseract-ocr-traineddata-eng
tesseract-ocr-traineddata-deu
tesseract-ocr-traineddata-greek

This setting worked well for a long time, depending on how clearly legible the font was in the scanned text.

As I said earlier: This was the case on my Ubuntu system until recently. I'll probably find out how things work under the current OpenSuse Tumbleweed in the next few days. :wink:

Sigo diciendo que #GimageReader es un programa de puta madre.

Use gImageReader to Extract Text From Images and PDFs on Linux

gImageReader is a front-end for Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine. Tesseract was originally developed at HP and then was open-sourced in 2006.
Basically, the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engine lets you scan texts from a picture or a file (PDF). It can detect several languages by default and also supports scanning through Unicode characters.
However, the Tesseract by itself is a command-line tool without any GUI. So, here, gImageReader comes to the rescue to let any user utilize it to extract text from images and files.

aggiungo: io ho provato di recente #tesseract con interfaccia grafica #gImageReader (su Mint 19). Sui formati il dibattito è aperto: se ti serve il pdf controlla la versione (quindi a quale standard corrisponde: #pdf/A [1-a, ma anche 1-b] è pensato per l'archiviazione a lungo termine, e la v. 1.4 corrisponde grosso modo a qulle specifiche).
Sulle immagini non so molto, ma anche lì hai i vari standard per il #jpeg (mentre per l'archiviazione il consenso è su #tiff, ma ti serve più spazio sul disco)

Para quienes busquen un programa de reconocimiento de caracteres, #gImageReader puede ser una buena herramienta, para tal propósito.

Let's see if placing a transcript in the #ImageDescription works. I'm messing around with #gocr and #gImageReader because I really want to maximize the #accessibility of these old #comics in #ScreenReader software.
