I need to extract text from images like the one below:
As you can see, the text is typed not handwritten. Moreover, the background is colorful.
I've tried Tesseract OCR, and while it works some of the times, it fails miserably on some inputs. For the above example, it produces "Due CoN aicomrBi em Cela RTL".
Which command-line OCR software would you recommend? If Tesseract is my best bet, can I transform these images to make it easier for Tesseract to recognize the characters?
EDIT: Based on @MarcusMüller's suggestion, I used convert -threshold 55%
to better separate the foreground text from the background. The resulting images are much better!
Alas, Tesseract still is useless. On this new image, it produces: "Bim KM ioes Bm Meme e Cera".
As such, the question remains open.
