I’d be happy to help with Tesseract wisdom. I mainly use it to extract text from WhatsApp conversations. Locally, it works perfectly, extracting all the text without any issues. However, the problem arises when I upload it to the cloud with DJANGO. I’ve configured everything necessary for Tesseract to work. Locally, I manually installed it because I’m using Windows, and for the server, I simply used Docker. Somehow, I encounter version differences between local and production.
But the main issue is that in the cloud, it misses a lot of text whereas locally, everything comes out perfectly. I tried changing the image to send it from React via API to the cloud and download it to my server, but it remains the same. I really don’t know why it sometimes misses text and sometimes works perfectly, even in the cloud, this varies from image to image. Needless to say, I also use CV2 to improve its performance significantly. Would appreciate any help on this matter.
Prompt: What steps have you taken to troubleshoot the Tesseract issue both locally and on the cloud? What are the specific differences you’ve observed between the successful and unsuccessful cases?
this is my code:
