Tesseract on simple image

[Test]

Hello,

This is my first time using tesserect (3.0.2) and I am testing using what I thought was a simple image with some text:

However, the output does not come out as I expected.  I tried a few different -psm modes but the best I can get is using -psm 6 which results in the below.  Is that the best I can get or am i missing something that can improve the results?

Thanks.

using System.Col1ections.Generic;

using System.Text;

using System.|A|indows.Media;

using System.|A|indows.Media.Imaging;

using System.|A|indows.Navigation;

using System.|A|indows.Shapes;

/// Interaction logic for Mainlnlindmmxaml

public partial class Mainwindow : window

{

plublic Mainwindow()

{

Initia1izeComponent();

}

}

}

Any pointers here?  Maybe something to get me going on this simple image and then I can work on things a bit more complicated.

Rescaling to 300DPI would help.

The DPI is confusing if you're not running a scanner,
and the minumum only applies to typical font sizes.
It's the size of the characters in pixels that is
important. Perhaps the wiki page should have some
images for the minumum and maximum character sizes.
The newb could display his image at 100% scale and
compare the character sizes to those on the web page.
If they aren't within the range, they should rescale
the image.
