Setup and Deployment of the Tesseract OCR Engine

Post by Dantevios » Wed Jun 17, 2009 5:03 pm

I am having trouble deploying my project which utilizes the Tesseract OCR Engine /w the GDPicture Toolkit Light edition 4.0. My pictures will convert into PDFs, but the OCR is not being performed.

So far I include gdpicture4.ocx in my setup and deployment project for Visual Studio 2008 to be placed in the Application Output folder. I also have Interop.GdPicture4 included in the Application output folder. What DLLs do I need to include and what folders do I have to put them in on the target system for my project to be able to be deployed correctly? (gdocrplug.tesseract.dll?)

Thank you,
Dantevios

Hi,

Did you check the first page of the reference guide ? (Chapter 3)

Please, give me more detail, what exact problem are you encountering ? Error message ? Did you deployed to msvbvm60.dll & gdocrplug.tesseract.dll ?
Do you check the return value of the OCR methods ?

Fell free to give me any information!

Kind regards,

Loïc

I didn't even know you had a reference guide. Thank you for pointing that out to me :D . That answers my questions exactly on page 1 lol. I was not including msvbvm60.dll or any of the other dlls it says to include in the guide. When I figured out how to use your code I just added what DLLs I found in your sample project and went from there.

Thank you lots,
Jon
