tesseract: An OCR Engine that was developed at HP Labs between 1985 and 19951

Package available in: [trunk] [8.0] [7.0]

The Tesseract OCR engine was one of the top 3 engines in the 1995 UNLV Accuracy test. Since then it has had little work done on it, but it is probably one of the most accurate open source OCR engines available.
