GUI Paddle OCR Indices for Array Error?

[AziRizvi]

This is the error it's giving me whenever I try to OCR anything, same error with a single image and same error when I try it out with a folder, the images I'm trying to OCR are in png format.

Is it still the same pictures as described in the issue in Tesseract?

I suspect it's because these pictures use the transparency channel (alpha channel). Allow me some time to inspect and fix it. Thank you for your feedback!

[AziRizvi]

Yes, these are the same images, I've uploaded them on my Github in a repo and linked them in the Tesseract repository. I thought this issue might be caused because the filenames were too long so I tried to rename them and the result was the same which led me to believe that this is some other issue, then I opened this issue ticket.

A long filename is OK. I didn't assume any limitations on the filename length, because it's not C language, and I don't have to pre-allocate space manually. I'll inspect it later and will reveal the reason.

I am glad to announce that I have fixed this problem. At the same time, the paddle OCR v2 model has ended its lifecycle, as the maintenance from the "Baidu" company on v2 has stopped. Therefore, I upgraded to the paddle OCR v4 model.

The recognition workflow is primarily simplified so that fewer problems will occur.

Here is an example of your example data. @AziRizvi

Release at:

https://github.com/cloudy-sfu/GUI-for-paddlepaddle-OCR/releases/tag/v0.2.0

I appreciate your patience. Also, please note that the "paddle OCR v4" model supports more than Chinese and English, but I need extra work to build a language switcher (like tesseract OCR).

That is great news! Thank you for fixing the errors.

I will test things out either today or tomorrow and get back to you soon!

RuntimeError: (PreconditionNotMet) The third-party dynamic library (mklml.dll) that Paddle depends on is not configured correctly. (error code is 126)
  Suggestions:
  1. Check if the third-party dynamic library (e.g. CUDA, CUDNN) is installed correctly and its version is matched with paddlepaddle you installed.
  2. Configure third-party dynamic library environment variables as follows:
  - Linux: set LD_LIBRARY_PATH by `export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=...`
  - Windows: set PATH by `set PATH=XXX; (at ..\paddle\phi\backends\dynload\dynamic_loader.cc:312)

It is scheduled to be fixed soon. Thank you for your patience.
