Hi guys,

This seems like a very simple thing, but clearly I'm wrong. Take a look at this image of a the text "7.7":

In this font tesseract completely fails to categorize the sevens. I tried whitelists, patterns, disabling the different dawgs, different segmentation modes, and scaling up and down. 

I've attached the different test images I've been using.

If I could figure out how to retrain the model I would try that as well, but there's so much conflictory information in the internet and I have spent days trying to figure it out.

Good luck!

Here's the version data for the build I'm running:
