People are trying to find a nice, easy tutorial to help them get through the forest. I think that's the bottom line. Thanks for the link. 'Tesseract 4 was released 29 Oct 2018. Almost 4 year ago! The recent tesseract version is 5.2 and training process was also improved: https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesstrain"; I understand this, but I'm using C# .Net, and I don't think version 5 is available in C#. Unless I'm mistaken? There are costly packages, such as IronOcr which uses tesseract 5, but there is no way I can take that route.
