Hi there, I'm currently testing different custom thresholding methods with tesseract and I need a database of book pages pictures in order to compare these processes results. Doesn't need to be book pages necessarily, but all I have found so far are natural scenes pictures, glyphs and wrapped sentences databases, and those do not interest me, because I need full texts.
Does anyone know about a pictures database that already contains it's transcription to ASCII? 
Also is there any software that compares the results obtained by me with this ASCII dataset?
