Java OCR PNG Accuracy Lacking

I’m using the Java OCR library and have been having a difficult time getting accurate results out of small PNG images with a relative resolution of 300 dpi. I’ve attached an example image to this entry. In my latest iteration I’ve configured my OcrEngine with three filters; MedianFilter(3);, GaussBlurFilter();, and RemoveNoiseFilter();. I’ve also run tests excluding and including various combinations of the three, including different values for the MedianFilter. But this latest iteration seems to provide the best results, which are still not great. Here’s the output from the attached file;

Any assistance in getting this to produce consistent and accurate results would be greatly appreciated.
