is it possible to use the latest source from git to train Arabic?

[ShreeDevi Kumar]

Well, I just saw Arabic config file in langdata (uploaded on Aug 12th by Ray) and I am not sure whether training will be possible with existing tools available to us ...

See https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/source/browse/ara/ara.config?repo=langdata

It says:

# We do not yet have Tesseract for Arabic, so use OEM_CUBE_ONLY
# (see OcrEngineMode enum in third_party/tesseract/ccmain/tesseractclass.h).
tessedit_ocr_engine_mode	1

Other than that, in order to use Jtess or commandline tools for training, you will need font_properties, wordlists etc ...

----

Ray, is it possible to use the latest source from git to train Arabic?

it seems its a known issue of Serak. i have created the "ara" folder with files as "vie" folder in jtessbox editor as you can see in attachment. after that i have set the box file path in jtessbox editor of "Tesseract executable" and "Training data" for "ara" as attached. when i click the "Run" button i got the attached error. i don't know what goes wrong here.

Question: m i giving the wrong file in the path in "Tesseract executable" and "Training data" i.e ara box file? or what goes wrong.

note: i have put no data words_list, frequent_words, font_properties file.

I have not used Serak - but the issues page there indicates problems with RTL languages - see https://code.google.com/p/serak-tesseract-trainer/issues/detail?id=6

why are u not using jtessbox editor's trainer or the command line programs? I think the binaries are bundled with JTess...

Hello shree,

i am having an issue while training arabic in Serak (for box file generation i am using jtessbox editor). i am doing some testing. i have assigned  english alphabet for a single arabic word and created the box file as attached (jtessbox file). now following all training process in serak i got the OCR result as attached. although you can see in the box file there is 4 alphabets "A,B,C,D" but i was expecting OCR result will be ABCD but the results are BDBBAABBBBA as attached (serak result).

Question: why i a getting that result? is it some wrong while making box file in jtessbox editor or training in serak?

Look under jtessboxeditor/samples/vie folder

and create similar files for your language

Quan,

i am able to generate some files with jtess ox editor but i am having an issue, when i select "Train with existing box" or "Train from Scratch" under the Trainer tab i am getting this attached message.

Question: How i can generate the Arabic.font_properties, Arabic.frequent_word_list and Arabic.words_list files using jtessbox editor?

Look in samples folder for a working example. You can start out from a UTF-8 text file about 2-page long, generate TIFF/Box from it, and prepare other necessary input files for training. You can train entirely in jTessBoxEditor.

thank you for your help but my issue still exits. if i need to generate the Tiff of an image text i am unable to generate the TIFF as it only ask to load the text file not image file. second if i have a lots of documents i need to copy paste first then generate the TIFF. Any one else can help me in this.

Question: how can i Input the Arabic text image in jtessbox editor to generate Tiff (as attached).

Click on the 'generate' box - with some devanagri fonts I have found that text does not display but the tiff/box are generated. Maybe same for the arabic font you are using. Give it a try.

You can also try to copy and paste the text, sometimes that works.
