Description-en: Python wrapper for the tesseract-ocr API (Python3 version)
A simple, Pillow-friendly, wrapper around the tesseract-ocr API for Optical
Character Recognition (OCR).
.
tesserocr integrates directly with Tesseract's C++ API using Cython which
allows for a simple Pythonic and easy-to-read source code. It enables real
concurrent execution when used with Python's threading module by releasing the
GIL while processing an image in tesseract.
.
tesserocr is designed to be Pillow-friendly but can also be used with image
files instead.
.
This package contains the Python 3 version of the library.
