I'm not sure which steps are not required but these are just the steps I follow to get it working on my computer. I followed the docs included in Tesseract for vs2008 but I wasn't too sure if the headers would be different from the ones in the folders. Just to be safe I included this step.
In step 6 I am just adding the libraries in the lib folder. I wasn't sure which ones I actually needed so I just added all of them together and it seemed to work. Step 7 I put as optional because before I had tried installing Tesseract without the installer and it didn't include the .dlls.
