Hello,

tesseract-ocr is not identifying the words from the attached .png file.

Please let me know what could be the reason

With Best Regards,

Rahul

The font is very unusual - pixellated edges, close together and far too small. You might want to also try a different page segmentation parameter since the image contains a big blob of non-text.

Also the magenta colour on black could be problematic - try outputting the intermediate Tesseract image to see how this gets turned into the input for Tesseract (post just last week on how to do this) to understand if you should pre-process your image e.g. if this is always the position of the patient's name then you could easily crop out a top rectangle with just the text before inputting to Tesseract.
