Hi guys,

I would like to build tesseract .dll to use its methods in my project, but whenever i try to build from the existing tesseract project in visual studio 2010, it couldn't build.I also found wrapper for tesseract which is tessnet2, couldn't process any image even though i did all of the instructions in the site http://www.pixel-technology.com/freeware/tessnet2/[^]

can anybody help me to use the tesseract methods by referencing the .dll or by any other way?

A suggestion :- Always use "pre" tag for Codes and always try to convert URl to Hyperlink because it gives better readability and accessibility to other users.

I tried to use this thing: basically, it worked for me. Sorry, I don't remember details. I found the quality of this software too poor to bother any more.

It is not possible to guess exactly what problem/error you are facing. I do agree with comments of SA posted above, OCR quality of "Tesseract", I too found poor.

I got an apportunity to explore many OCR SDK's in past and I found quality of below OCR SDK's comparitively better than "Tesseract" and Microsoft's(Microsoft Office Document Imaging) OCR.

1) Atalasoft OCR SDK (For Windows applications only.)
