OCR is broken

Aspose.OCR Product Family
1

Running the demo gives me

answer -> abcdefgnij
part.getText() => abcdefgnij

… and that’s using the Sample.bmp and running demo.bat file from the samples folder! If this worked correctly, we should have multiple parts consisting of the whole alphabet-- upper and lower case, numeric, and some non-numeric values, right?

What is going on?

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your inquiry. There is a limit of ten character recognition on evaluation version of Aspose.OCR for Java API, so that’s why you are unable to recognize complete text. If you want to test Aspose.OCR for java without evaluation version limitations, you can request a 30 day temporary license here.

Please feel free to contact us for any further assistance.

Best Regards,

Got the license… New output:

answer -> abcdefgnijkImnopqrstuvwxyz

ABCDEFGH IJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

01 23450789

-!1-+!()

part.getText() => abcdefgnijkImnopqrstuvwxyz

part.getText() => ABCDEFGH

part.getText() => IJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

part.getText() => 01

part.getText() => 23450789

part.getText() => -!1-+!()

Still not great and so slow!

And, when trying to use it for ALPR, it’s a complete fail. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Chris,


Thanks for your feedback. Sorry for the inconvenience, our development team is working over a major revamp of Aspose.OCR API for performance improvement, support of smaller font sizes, new fonts and languages.


Secondly, Please share some more details regarding reading ALPR. Can you please also share some sample image? So we will look into and share more information accordingly,
