If you intend to do such a project please consider the path taken by an very old, and now defunct, project ... Clara OCR - Cooperative optical recognition

I mean just skip the final automatic AI full char recognition and only use the char segmentation engine then group all real segmented chars to logical labels and final part of recognition to be manual, assisted by you training UI, revised and aided by real human eyes not that stupid AI who manage to misslabel a char every now and then. Is my belief that using this approach the accuracy of recognition will skyrocket trough the roof of 100% with a very modest time increase necessary for a brief and final human revision not too time consuming because this is what can humans do best spotting the black wolf in a set of white sheep.

=======================================
linux is free, but needed expertise to use this little beast
is a personal, time consuming, continuous accumulation of knowledge
and wasted time can not be rolled back no matter how much money you have

selling free software can not bring to you too much money,
but USING free software you can make a lot of money
like Google ... or IBM

your little help to free software development does not bring
to you any money but can help you use it more efficiently,
so you can make more money ... meanwhile, other users of
that little free software program, using your contribution
can make more money! nobody loses anything, all those who know
how to use a free software program, in continuous evolution, wins

I have done two more commits to avoid starting trouble. Now one have to start using "train-tesseract" command. The updated deb package is attached with this post.
