Is this same as your online OCR?

Hi,

I couldn't have it working in my computer yet but just looked through your code.
It seems that it just uses Tesseract-OCR's basic function to detect texts. Which is:

using (var engine = new TesseractEngine(_pathToTestData, Language, EngineMode.Default))
{
using (var img = Pix.LoadFromFile(pathToImage))
{
using (var page = engine.Process(img))
{
var resultText = page.GetText();
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(resultText))
return resultText;
}
}
}

I know about this code and it wasn't very great. However your online OCR (https://ocr.space/) works really great. How come they are different? Are they really using same code?

I guess they are using different tessdata. Would you be able to share your tessdata too?

You are right, both projects use a different OCR engine. This blog posts explains it: http://blog.a9t9.com/2015/09/ocr-api.html
