DESCRIPTION
Tesseract is probably the most accurate open source OCR engine
available. Combined with the Leptonica Image Processing Library
it can read a wide variety of image formats and convert them to
text in over 60 languages. It was one of the top 3 engines in
the 1995 UNLV Accuracy test.
Improved extensively by Google.
