Hello, I notice there may be some gaps in your understanding of Tesseract and its training requirements. Training Tesseract effectively requires careful adherence to its documentation and established processes. Proceeding without this foundation risks wasting both your time and ours. Anyway I put some notes below (inline with blue color)

Also, can you specify which part of the Tesseract documentation ( https://tesseract-ocr.github.io/tessdoc/tess5/TrainingTesseract-5.html) or the tesstrain step (https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesstrain) you were referring to?" > I received the following error:Error, data/eng/Apex.lstm is an integer > (fast) model, cannot continue training > > **What we faced:**I have verified that the eng.traineddata file is located > correctly in /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata/ (path may differ > depending on installation).Despite following the tutorial and using the > correct paths for the eng.traineddata, > Not sure what you try to communicate with this as you use `../tesseract/tessdata` for training which seems to be a different location than `/usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata/`. > I’m getting an error related to the model being an "integer model" and > unable to continue training.I tried downloading the latest eng.traineddata > from GitHub, but the error persists. > Try to search e.g. https://github.com/search?q=org%3Atesseract-ocr%20integer%20model&type=code > *Questions*: What does the "integer (fast) model" error mean, and how can > I resolve it?
