I am working in a windows environment in which I do not own admin power. I need a standalone tesseract version ( I guess that would be 3.5 and higher) which can do font detection. Any help will be very much appreciated

What do you mean with font detection?

Well tesseract 3.5 and 4 have an option to detect font types per character.

It is still not clear for me what do you want to get (font family or font style?) and how (API or tesseract executable/hocr)?

Anyway I do not remember character based font attributes, but there is WordFontAttributes (but I am not sure if it fixed in 4.x)

Either would be helpful. My real issue is finding a standalone portable tesseract.

VietOCR, Java version, bundles Tesseract Windows executable. You may want to check it out.
