Hi

I am newbie and need help how to start working on Tesseract, Please advise me first few steps, if I have pdf/images datasheets to get data from them.

Should I have to write my application, if you what would be the best way to do it?

If using current code how could I proceed?

Thanks a ton!

Start by reading the available documentation:

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki

If you feel some of it could be clearer or improved, feel free to request changes and/or provide the updates yourself.

I was new a few weeks ago and found tesseract quite easy to use. However, you should know the basics of console input (which I remember from my DOS days). I am using Windows and downloaded the v5 akpha version. As input I use .jpg files, output is a text file. Initially the German "umlaute" did not work, with some help I got here I reinstalled, taking care to include the German language option. I am reasonably happy with the result, it serves my purpose.

There are also  third party GUI interfaces for tesseract. The ones that I have used at times are vietocr and gimagereader.

You are absolutely right,  I have to do my job, but I am kind of confused should I have to modify the existing code or to write my script in Python?

I have read all the documents but little bit struggling. My request just give me the starting point then I will submit what I achieve.\

Thanks a ton!

Have you seen the wiki page

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/APIExample

There are also multiple existing projects using tesseract with python.
