I've recently started a java project which uses the Tesseract OCR and settled for the java version of Tesseract knowing that it wouldn't be optimal. I installed my tesseract library with Maven, link: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.sourceforge.tess4j/tess4j The library works wonderfully but I need to train it for the font "Helvetica" and the "€" symbol.
This is where I fail, I cannot find anything about training this library in java. So far I have downloaded jTessBoxEditor, VietOCR and Serak as these seem to be the most widely used tools for training. I have also created my own training data.
My issue: I cannot link the Serak trainer to any executable Tesseract file as these dont exist. How do I train Tesseract for java? Ideally I would need to keep my project java based.
The image shows where I'm currently stuck at: Me trying to link Serak trainer to my Tesseract library.
