For the same image, I am using the tesseract to get the text output. But apparently the output is bad on linux version (RHEL) than windows (Windows 10). I also made sure that all the installation dependencies and version are same. 

Kindly let me know how to deal with this.

Thanks

Do you really think that somebody can reproduce problem based on information you provided?

Hi, I experienced the same as Karan reported. I first installed tesseract on my macbook pro, then later on an Ubuntu server. The OCR results on Chinese simplified was much better on Mac OS than on Ubuntu. Any fix for this?

Please check Tesseract version on both with 

tesseract -v

Share an example image and the output you received on Mac OS and Ubuntu.

We use the same version on both Mac OS and Ubuntu. Unfortunately, the image contains confidential information that can not be shared publicly.

Without a sample image which shows the differences and the version number, it is not possible to help.

Can you create an image similar to yours but without the information?

Hi, I also have the same problem. Our program runs in a Docker, and even then the exact same Docker running in MacOS vs Linux Ubuntu vs Windows produces different results. All of the requirements are the same, with same versions. This makes me think the problem might be outside of version requirements and perhaps in the graphics card or something else in the host OS.
