FC12/KDE/X86_64 Having problems of saving a Scanned Text Doc. I can save the Scanned Doc as a image, jpg,png and ps and pdf but it won't save the scanned document as a Text file. When it's saved as a out.txt , it looks like a scrambled bunch of characters. It scans the doc and shows it is a text file, but saving it is the problem. gocr.rpm is installed
Hi Jim,Initially, I used gocr too, but it has IMHO no good text recognition, so in the meantime I installed *tesseract* which has a rather good text recongnition.
I scan with *xsane* into .tif files, because if I remember correctly, tesseract needs .tif files as input: tesseract <input>.tif <output> Kind regards -- Joachim Backes <joachim.backes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.rhrk.uni-kl.de/~backes
