Anyone know of any OCR software that -actually- works? I've tried gocr and ocrad and neither one produces -any- readable output.
I've used Kooka to drive both gocr and ocrad with fair success - the output required a few changes per sentence but not much more than that. As with most OCR software, they need the best scan you can provide (Kooka helps a lot with that), a good dictionary to work against (again, Kooka does that) and an original using a readable font. I have to say that driving either gocr or ocrad alone was a thankless task for me. If your original is good quality, try Kooka. Read the help files and plug in the suggested settings, and see how you go.
