Successfully installed and run Tesseract on Ubuntu, but can't find baseapi.h file to include ...

[fsbo.c...@gmail.com]

are there different types of installations of which I have chosen the wrong one? The leptonica include files are showing up fine.

Thanks very much!

Tesseract:

tesseract-ocr: Installed: 3.03.02-3

Ubuntu:

Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS

Also, just to make sure I'm not missing something, is there a distinction between tesseract-ocr and tesseract?

Hi Thanks for the notes! The problem was that I was used to using tesseract on mac, which has a different install process (I believe) from ubuntu. I needed to compile it on ubuntu, which I think is possibly equivalent to installing the tesseract dev package?

Question for sriranga, is this Tesseract 3.4.0 you mention only an iOS thing? I see a few pages from a google search but they are all related to iOS and according to this: http://cocoadocs.org/docsets/TesseractOCRiOS/3.4.0/

it is based on 3.03.

Packager usualy split distribution files to several packages - comman are 2: "runtime" and "dev" You do not need "dev" package for running program (e.g. tesseract). With this approach you can save a space for end users.

If you install tesseract from source you install everything (excluding language data ;-) ): tesseract executable, tesseract library, tesseract header files...
