OCR problem

Asked by saifin

so i m trying to capture a text from a image using .text() method
the problem is it captures the text by skipping spaces
i mean if the text is "hello world" in the image it captures as helloworld and ignores the spaces and sometimes it also gives false special characters

you might try with version 1.1.4

If you stick with 1.1.3 or earlier, you have to live with the poor OCR

i checked 1.1.4 and it still shows some characters incorrect

below is the text in the image

"Problem List has not been verified"

and below is what i get

"Problem List has not been veri?ed"

You have to live with that, since I did not find a solution for that until now:
In some fonts an fi is read as the unicode character fi (u'\ufb01') (not sure what that is)

Can you help with this problem?
