PyOCR is an optical character recognition (OCR) tool wrapper for Python. That is, it helps using OCR tools from a Python program.

PyOCR can be used as a wrapper for google's Tesseract-OCR or Cuneiform. It can read all image types supported by Pillow, including jpeg, png, gif, bmp, tiff, and others. It also support bounding box data.

This is the Python 3 version of the package.
