2015-11-13 22:37:51 -0600 | asked a question | Group glyphs images from a book page scan Hello! I am a type designer working on a type revival project. I have a bunch of high quality scans from a book printed with movable type. My goal is to group all the image of the same glyph in a dedicated subFolder. Using PIL I can easily split the original scan in single glyph images as these:
I started to design a script for the grouping task using as source these tutorials (1, 2). Here you can find my draft. The script partially works: I got some matches and I managed to group together a decent number of glyphs. But I am wondering if I can improve the results. A significant number of glyphs doesn't get any match, and some of the matches were just wrong. Given that the complexity of these images is very low, there is maybe room for improvement. A few questions:
should I take something else in consideration? Any comment or suggestion would be really appreciated. All the best EDIT ––––––– Extra images. They all come from a group collected by the script. The right ones (lowercase 'o', 29/35):
The wrong ones (6/35):
