Tesseract OCR
-
I'd like to do ocr on a sudoku puzzle. I recognise the advice given Kipekeedev about a year ago, but I want to be able to ocr on my iPad not use the internet. Has anyone successfully loaded Tesseract into Pythonista and could give me some suggestions how to do it?
Thanks.

tesseract is a c/c++ library, so you won't be able to use it on the ipad.
you could build a tesseract webserver that you run on your pc, though at that point you might as well use google cloud vision. I used tesseract a number of years ago and found it quite difficult to set up and get reasonable results..

Thanks Jon. Any other iPad OCR suggestions?
