Installing and running on win32 #27

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Fresh install of python 2.7
2. install using win32 installer
3. install numpy using win32 installer
4. attempt to run sample code
5. failure to open ./tessdata/eng.traineddata
6. Attempt to locate tessdata folder
7. unable to find tessdata folder

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Leaving aside that the installer does not list any dependencies on numpy, it is 
incomplete as it does not include enough components to run "out of the box". 

This may just be a documentation issue.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Python 2.7.1 win32
python tesseract 0.7.5

Please provide any additional information below.
I eventually found tessdata inside the tess-slim download. It's apparently 
something the tesseract-ocr looks for, which should be stated in the 
documentation.
