How to install languages on the Tesseract version? #8

Closed lrq3000 closed 11 months ago

The app says that the language files are not yet downloaded, how can I do that?

Thank you very much for this software, it would be awesome to be able to use Tesseract on Android!

When you open the app, click on language, and select the language you want to use, the model data should be downloaded.

This works as you described, thank you @mtotschnig

Discussion with user on DivestOS: Me: it seems that DivestOS allows to configure if an app is allowed to access the Internet. Could you verify if this permission is granted to the OCR app? User: Good news, it's fixed! You were on the right track, I found out that to download the model your app invokes Androids "Download Manager" in the background, which did in fact have network permissions off. Model downloaded, thanks!
