I have a problem with converting JPG files containing images of texts to the text files. I tried ABBYY's OCR SDK and some other sources of OCR but none of them contains Georgian language.
Could you please tell me if there is any OCR source which could be used for Georgian language?
Thank you in advance for the help!
Tesseract is fully trainable; you can train it for your language. Tools like jTessBoxEditor can be very useful in editing the box files.

In Power Automate Desktop, I'm trying to read Japanese text from Images using Windows OCR Engine but it is not able to extract Japanese characters into the text file.
Please let me know if there is any work around or solution for this problem.
Thank you in advance.
I am using Tesseract-OCR version 3.05 dev in python to OCR some documents. The main issue I have is with number 4 in the typewriter font. It almost always misses it and outputs either empty instead of 4 or some incorrect text.
I have uploaded a sample image.
I dont have to use tesseract as well, if you have suggestions on other (better) engines out there please let me know.
If you are looking for digits only you could add a whitelist which contains only digits. Example in c++:
tesseract::TessBaseAPI api;
api.SetVariable("tessedit_char_whitelist", "0123456789");
If that doesn't work I suggest you train tesseract-ocr for this specific font. A good and clear guide can be found here: https://medium.com/apegroup-texts/training-tesseract-for-labels-receipts-and-such-690f452e8f79#.mpllnzu57
Hope this helps solving your problem. :)
I'm looking for a OCR library that allows me to read text in an image, but only text that is circled. I want to get some feedback on Tesseract OCR for this task. It looks powerful but complex. HOw would it be used here, can I be trained for something like this? or should have to be extended?
Yes, Tesseract is fully trainable. And it just happens that it supports text in a circle also (pagesegmode 9). Give it a try.
Is it possible to extract the text from an image like this?
(I'd like to display it in an textfield afterwards)
Thanks.

What you're looking for is Optical Character Recognition. Here is a similar question:
OCR Actionscript
Though sadly it has no clear-cut answer. There is no native class/framework for doing it in AS3, though I'm sure it's possible.
This is a task where you'd employ web service. I know Google Docs can OCR an image for you. ABBYY, whose FineReader is one of the best in the business, also provides an OCR web service. Google has open-sourced their OCR software. You can conceivable set it up on your own server.
I would like to take a pdf of a scanned graph paper notebook (with handwriting) and turn it into a text file.
How can I do this?
Thanks
Check out an OCR library, like OCRopus. I don't think it takes PDF, so you may have to convert it to a TIFF or JPEG first.
There are OCR libraries that convert typing (OCRopus, tesseract, etc.)
There are also Java based handwriting libraries. I am not sure if OCRopus has that ability, one library I was looking into to do handwriting recognition was:
Online Video
Java Neural Networks
Conceivably you could take the pdf, convert it into a tiff if need be (according to the software), and it would give you something..
Good luck!
If it is the notebook as a PDF file you could e-mail it to a gmail account and then gmail allows you to "view" the PDF from within your browser as an HTML file. Still the pages remain images.
If you would like the text out of it OCR might work but it may also be uncapable of getting the text out of it.
