Hi,

when i try to specify the language to use ("-1 deu"), i get this error message:
 read_params_file: Can't open deu
The same happens with every language i tried. It kind of works if i delete the space in between -1 and the language, but i think this is just because of soem fallback to the default.
My TESSDATA_PREFIX variable is set to the parent directory of tessdata.

I am using Tesseract v3.05 ond windows.

Any ideas?

Should be "-l deu", not numeric 1.

Thanks a lot!
