Hi,

How can i train the tess-two to recgnize only numbers?

Thanks in advance.

rmtheis commented 9 years ago

You don't need to re-train. Set the whitelist to "0123456789".

Thanks,

I set the both the "VAR_CHAR_WHITELIST" and "VAR_CHAR_BLACKLIST" to "0123456789" in TessBaseAPI class, but it is still scanning the letters. Please Help me.

rmtheis commented 9 years ago

Don't set a value for the blacklist.

ajinkyapote1 commented 9 years ago

Even if i am setting only "VAR_CHAR_WHITELIST" to "0123456789", it is scanning the numbers. Please help me to scan numbers only.

Take a look at how it's being set in this project. [1] Note that the setVariable() call comes before setImage() is called. If you still have questions, ask a question on StackOverflow and include the code you're using.
