Enough for amateurish use. Not good enough for professionals.

Guess it's ok. I open a scanned pdf, got a dialog message: "The file you have opened already contains text, are you sure you want to proceed?" I mean wtf dude, I know there's text in this pdf, but I can't edit this crap, so you bet I want to proceed. If you want any language other than english DO NOT install package "tesseract-ocr", it has only english. Install package "tesseract-ocr-all" instead. You are welcome. Not very intuitive UI: You can't scroll up and down your pdf, you have to select each page separately. As strange as it sounds, I could not locate the button that starts the OCR. It was hidden in plain sight: it is the language selection button itself, just don't click on the arrow. It crashes sometimes. BUT BOTTOM LINE: after messing with it for an hour or so, installing languages and dictionaries, I managed to get plaintext off a 35 page pdf. And that's what counts in the end, isn't it? You don't really have much choice anyway

It works! Saves to plain TXT. But I didn't find how to recognize all pages to one file.

Vieil utilisateur d'OCR propriétaires, tel le russe FineReader, j'ai été bluffé par les performances de GImagereader, qui suffit largement à mes besoins actuels.

Використав комади із коментаря, що нижче і все запрацювало. Українську ставив командою #sudo apt install tesseract-ocr-ukr Усе працює! Чудово!

gImageReader sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sandromani/gimagereader sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gImageReader Tesseract sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr-rus (для установки русского языка) sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr-eng (to install english) Можно найти языковой пакет в Synaptic Package Manager

У меня не работает, выдает "Недоступны языковые файлы для tesseract. Распознавание работать не будет". Гуглил, решение не нашел, понял только, что я не один с такой проблемой.

Gives me everything I want for straight OCR of text documents. Scans with my Canon MG6660 far better than gscan2pdf and easier to use.

treba ti samo Hunspell i Tesseract, mada treba još da se udadi da bi bio blizu Abbyy

GimageReader is the Best frontend for Tesseract. However the version 3.1.2 is 2 years old ! Would someone kindly update it please ?

Although not many options but still one of the best tesseract frontend. Good OCR engine
