AttributeError: 'filter' object has no attribute 'split'

[Alkesh Mahajan]

lines = text.split('\n')
AttributeError: 'filter' object has no attribute 'split'

how to solve this error

[Dilip Puri]

What I had done there that If I grab text from image so it will return like paragraph now we have to process on each and every line of that paragraph so that's why I use "lines = text.split('\n')".

[Alkesh Mahajan]

I get none value

[Dilip Puri]

put 'print text' statement before "lines = text.split("\n")" and check what you get. Actually, I am assuming that information comes in different lines

[Shahnawaz R Shaikh]

I git cloned your project and ran in cmd
E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src>C:\Python27\python.exe crop_morphology.py test.jpg

It gives error as too many values to unpack

[Shahnawaz R Shaikh]

Then I gave only path as the second argument and now there is no error but can't see any output, the src folder contains five test images

C:\Python27\Scripts>E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\crop_morphology.py E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src

[Dilip Puri]

C:\Python27\Scripts>E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\crop_morphology.py E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\test.jpg

try this one and see

[Shahnawaz R Shaikh]

By giving this,

C:\Python27\Scripts>E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\crop_morphology.py E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\test.jpg
Still
E:\PAN-Card-OCR-master\PAN-Card-OCR-master\src\test.jpg too many values to unpack

Brother can I get the step by step way to execute as this is an important project for me

[Dilip Puri]

let me know what do you wanna do?

there is no need to use crop_morphology.py in case you are extracting text from image

[Shahnawaz R Shaikh]

I want to get the name, DOB, pan number from pan card as a string.
Similarly for the Driving License and Aadhaar card.

Hi Shahnawaz/Dilip,

I am working on same project, Could you please help me to execute this project.

[Dilip Puri]

I thought I need to work on it.
The first thing is that modularization of the program.
A complete change in logic and dependencies.
Tackle the problem in a much better way.

@Alkeshm29 @shahnawaj5488 @pritesh-tiwari

What kinds of problems you got and how you tackle them?
Suggestions would be appretiated.

Please help. I am in difficult situation.

[Antik Saini]

add this line. it should work if using python3.
text = list(filter(lambda x: ord(x) < 128, text))
text = ' '.join([str(s) for s in text])
