Hi @AIGirl10,

I have two images on that web site with example ssocr command lines, six_digits.png and inside_box.png, and both examples work for me:

$ rm -f six_digits.png && wget -q https://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~auerswal/ssocr/six_digits.png && ssocr -T six_digits.png 
431432
$ rm -f inside_box.png && wget -q https://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~auerswal/ssocr/inside_box.png && ssocr crop 230 195 220 60 -t 20 inside_box.png

There is a third image on my web site used to illustrate the algorithm that is produced with ssocr, but cannot be recognized by it: illustrate_algo.png. This image can be created as follows:

$ ls illustrate_algo.png
ls: cannot access 'illustrate_algo.png': No such file or directory
$ ssocr -Dillustrate_algo.png -T -v six_digits.png 
loading image six_digits.png
using threshold 81.37
no commands given, using image six_digits.png unmodified
431432
using png format for debug image
writing debug image to file illustrate_algo.png
$ ls illustrate_algo.png
illustrate_algo.png

Trying to reproduce this example without -T does not work:

$ ssocr -D six_digits.png 
found too many digits (7)

Did you mean this with your question? I have just updated my web page to show the full command line required.

HTH, Erik
