I want to read a specific character sequence with Tesseract wich contains the 
word "TEST" followed by 2 characters and 3 digits.

I have tried bazaar matching pattern in Tesseract with the pattern

TEST\A\A\d\d\d

and ocr still recognize other words which doesn't match.

I have tried to use the "tessedit_char_whitelist" parameter but I can't choose 
the position of the characters with that.

I launch the command : tesseract image.jpg result -l eng bazaar And I have no 
error message, just :

"Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine v3.01 with Leptonica"

The result : TESTAB123 TESTABC12 TESTA1234 TEST12345 TESTABCD1

So it is wrong, I just wanted to catch the sequence "TESTAB123".

Can somebody tell me why the regular expression in my user-patterns file as no 
effect ? For the configuration, I have STRICTLY followed the bazaar tutorial.
