Command -      "tesseract 1.tiff output pdf"

Error in boxClipToRectangle: box outside rectangle

Which version of source have you used?

Latest version is available from 

https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/source/checkout

You need the pdf config files in tessdata directory. See

https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/source/browse/tessdata

You also need to make sure that tessdata_prefix is pointing to the correct directory.

I use a bash script and command line such as the following to specify the different options

tesseract  --tessdata-dir ./tesseract-ocr/testing   $f $f  -l $LANG   -psm $PSM $PDF 

eg. in this case the traineddata and pdf files are in ./tesseract-ocr/testing/tessdata directory

SEVERE: Error during processing.

My test method is -
public void getPdf() throws Exception {
        Tesseract t = Tesseract.getInstance();
        List<RenderedFormat> list = new ArrayList<RenderedFormat>();
        list.add(RenderedFormat.PDF);
        t.setLanguage("eng");
        t.setDatapath("/usr/share/");
        //t.setOcrEngineMode(1);
        //t.setPageSegMode(2);
        //t.setTessVariable("read_params_file", "fh");
        t.createDocuments(
                "tess4j-master/target/test-classes/test-data/1.tiff",
                "tess4j-master/target/test-classes/test-data",
                list);
       

    }


Internal method is -
private void createDocuments(String filename, TessResultRenderer renderer) throws TesseractException {
        int result = api.TessBaseAPIProcessPages(handle, filename, null, 0, renderer);
System.out.println("result   "+result);
        if (result != TessAPI.TRUE) {
            throw new TesseractException("Error during processing.");
        }
    }


In any method of java example I get same error.
