Best FREE OCR for JAVA

Question

Is there any working OCR library for JAVA. It can call widows .dll - I don't mind it.

I'm trying to overcome one easy captcha. Asprise OCR works sometimes, but mostly it misses one or two characters

Answer 2

If you're willing to call an external web API, take a look at this (based on the ABBYY engine): http://www.wisetrend.com/wisetrend_ocr_cloud.shtml - sign up at http://www.webservius.com/cons/subscribe.aspx?p=wisetrend&s=wiseocr . You can try emailing your captcha image to "[email protected]" to see if it will work - you will get the OCR results by email.
