Hello everyone,

I hope you are all well. I have installed opencv with extra modules with help of this [https://putuyuwono.wordpress.com/2015...] tutorial. During configuration stage I have a message which says "Tesseract: NO"

After installation I have created a simple scene text detection project. And I have succesfully detected text in images.

After this part, I have tried to run ocr with below code.

// img1 is a CV_8UC3 typed mat image. and output is a string variable.

Ptr<OCRTesseract> ocr = OCRTesseract::create();
ocr->run(img1, output);

This piece of code runs without any error but does not give me any ocr result. I have tried different images but result is the same.

I have also tried to set parameters for create function.

Ptr<OCRTesseract> ocr = OCRTesseract::create("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Tesseract-OCR\\tessdata", "eng", "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ");

Unfortunatelly this did not went well too. I did not get any errors but did not get a result too.

How can I make my code work?

Thanks in advance.

Here is full log generated after I hit configure button in CMAKE.

Keep in mind that the integrated OCR module is in contrib modules, which equals about to your on your own there, because the is still buggy and not well maintained.... I guess you would get better luck accessing a forum specific to tesseract OCR.
