Optical Character Recognition OCR Using Google Tesseract

Dileepa Wijayanayake • December 7, 2020
One of FlowWright's approaches to supporting OCR involves leveraging Google's Tesseract OCR engine. The Tesseract OCR engines's high performance and accuracy make it a powerful and reliable product for OCR. It can take any image and recognize the text within it at very high accuracy.

Tesseract OCR supports many languages, FlowWright ships with the training files for English, and other languages Tesseract supports can be configured with a simple click using the FlowWright’s UI. Simply navigate to Status -> Tesseract OCR and select the desired languages, then FlowWright will download the language files from the Web and auto-configure them for use.

For even better recognition, we recommend using FlowWright's Microsoft Azure OCR steps for recognizing text from images.  Microsoft Azure steps use Machine learning to execute OCR and provide very high accuracy.
