The 0.7.1a version of OCRFeeder has been released.
This version introduces some tasks performed by Emergya as part of the GuadaLinfo Accessible project, such as:
- Importation from a scanner device.
- Copying text from the content boxes to the clipboard.
- Users can now use the typical spell-checker dialog to correct mistakes in the text recognized by the OCR engines.
Other highlights include:
- Rewritten ocrfeeder-cli (which also introduces a help method now)
- Added the automatic detection of the Cuneiform OCR engine
- Move the OCRFeeder modules to its own folder (so it is better organized and doesn’t conflict with other modules when installing it)
And some bug fixing:
- Add the help option to ocrfeeder-cli (gb#630829)
- Fix selecting all areas
- Fix ellipsis and title in the queued events dialog
- Prevent “invisible” boxes creation
- Remove temporary images for the Tesseract OCR engine
A big thanks to the great GNOME translators for keeping OCRFeeder available in a number of languages and to Berto for making it available in Debian (which later got into Ubuntu as well).
Just as I was releasing the 0.7.1a version I realized the spell-checker.ui file was not being installed so I quickly did a tiny release, hence the 0.7.1a and not simply 0.7.1.
