How can I specify the language to be used by Tesseract when using OCRFeeder

  • 772

I'm using the OCR-utility of OCRFeeder. OCRFeeder is using the tesseract-engine. I have installed the several language-packs needed for tesseract. How can I set the language such that tesseract will use the right language-file for converting the scanned document into text?

  1. You need to setup the engine command line on OCR Feeder settings. It should look like:

    -l lang_id $IMAGE $FILE; cat $FILE.txt

    Where lang_id is the id as shown on the correspondin language package name.
