I'm trying to ocr some old typewritten documents using xsane and gocr. There are many errors however. I've experimented with different brightness, gamma and contrast settings but can't seem to get acceptable quality. I've also tried kooka but it's won't scan nor preview the text and a good quality scan I adjusted from gimp still doesn't give good results. Any advice anyone?
The best results I got with kooka (from books or magazines) - but they are very bad compared to what I can get in windows with the software that came bundled with my epson scanner. I have to confess that the windows software makes almost no errors... Most unfortunate. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
