Talk:Ocrad

Just a start. I'll add more as I learn to use this thing.

I'll be playing with the others also.

Anyone else using this? Jump in!

If this works out, I'll provide an Intel Linux pre-compiled package. vls 18:13, 4 September 2006 (PDT)

ocrad choked hard on two fairly ugly scan images but did a decent job on another clean image. Does not like two column scans that's for sure. More piddling to come. Figure what kind of input it likes or not. vls 20:16, 4 September 2006 (PDT)

ocrad's block detection is quite good. Try the -l switch! ocrad is part of SUSE Linux.--Keichwa 23:37, 4 September 2006 (PDT)

Thanks, I did use the -l switch. I think it was the scan image so I probably jumped the gun about not liking two-column. I'm a newb to the OCR thing. So I have plenty of testing to do. I'll try converting to ppm's and pgm's to see what effect file format has.

If you have more input on ocrad please note it here or just edit the wiki page.
