Text Lines Split Incorrectly

[Matt Johnson]

I am having an issue with Tesseract splitting text lines incorrectly for the attached file of a metes and bounds legal description.  It returns this:

Any ideas on how to fix this?

It would be helpful if you included the version you are using, language model, the command line, etc.

The most likely fix is to use a different page segmentation mode on the command line.

You are correct, I was able to resolve this by using these two page segmentation modes:

• PSM 6 (single uniform block) 
• PSM 4 (single column variable sizes)

I use Tesseract with python and ran into this issue with both  pytesseract.image_to_data and  pytesseract.image_to_text commands with version 5.2 of Tesseract.

Thanks

I want you to guide me on how to deal with Tesseract jTessBoxEditor to create a training model on 10 images in Arabic and run the model Hello Tesseract with Mahmoud Abdel Aleem I saw your contributions in GitHub about Tesseract and I benefited from you well Thank you for your useful contributions, Tesseract I want you to help me with the following: 1- I have a set of digital images of book covers, 10 images in Arabic, I want to convert them to text using Tesseract 2- The conversion model is inaccurate and does not recognize most of the words ara.traineddata in the tessdata file in Tesseract 3- I created a model ara1.traineddata using jtessboxeditor where I created boxes for each image and modified them in a sample image then created a file ara1.traineddata and put it in the tessdata file in Tesseract and repeated the experiment on the image that was trained on but it did not succeed I think there is an error in the work steps that I am doing using jtessboxeditor If possible Tesseract let me know the correct steps for training and creating a .traineddata file using jtessboxeditor even create a custom model for 10 digital images so that I can make Tesseract recognize them and convert them to text If possible help me by sending an illustrative image of the steps I would be grateful for your cooperation
