Extract font size,style,colour from an image

[mandar bandodekar]

Hi ,

Is it possible to extract font colour, font style(Bold , italic), size using Tesseract-ocr?

[Zdenko Podobný]

tesseract 3.05 (the current stable version) has ability to detect some font characteristic, but it is not perfect (e.g. not color detection because OCR is run on binarized images).

You can test with hocr or play with API(ResultIterator and WordFontAttributes).

tesseract image.tiff image.txt -c tessedit_debug_fonts=1   ... this would give you the font type and the confidence of its font type.

I am using tesseract 3.05.00 stable version alongside tesserocr and couldn't use WordFontAttributes to check whether a word is bold, font-size etc.. But, I can find the text detection but not size and is bold?
