Bug report: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) not working
mattnotmax opened this issue · comments
Describe the bug
Current version 9.37.3 the OCR operation stalls at the 'finding text' stage. This is for Firefox and Chrome tested against the GCHQ github instance.
However, if I run a Docker version of 9.37.3 I can get OCR to work, but only on Firefox.
I have downgraded to 9.32.0 on another webserver (as I saw that tesseract was updated from 2.1.1 -> 2.1.5 in 9.32.1). I can get OCR to work but again only in Firefox and Chrome has the same issue.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour or a link to the recipe / input used to cause the bug:
- Load a PNG image with text
- Apply OCR operation
- OCR generation starts and stalls at 'finding text'
- OCRed text does not appear
Expected behaviour
The text should be OCRed.
