Tesseract newb in need of help with "Error during processing"

[Dai Deqi]

Hi,

I macported tesseract 3.04.00 to my MacBook Pro running El Capitan.  After that, I downloaded all the languages and then tried OCR'ing some pdf-converted-to-tiff images, one containing Urdu and the other Korean.  I've played around with the config file and psm but keep getting an "Error during processing" for any -psm other than 0 & 2 for both -l urd and -l kor.  I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong and would very grateful if some kind soul could help me get over this hump.

Thanks in Advance!

tesseract 3.04.00

 leptonica-1.73

  libgif 4.2.3 : libjpeg 9a : libpng 1.6.21 : libtiff 4.0.6 : zlib 1.2.8 : libwebp 0.5.0 : libopenjp2 2.1.0

What is "macported"?

Are there any other error messages? Unfortunately "Error during processing" is just the program's generic "something didn't work" error message. Do you have example images that you can post?
