Answer 1

If you are using pytesseract, you have to make sure that you have installed Tesseract-OCR in your system. After that you have to insert the path of the tesseract in your code, as below

from PIL import Image
import pytesseract

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Tesseract 
OCR/tesseract'

You can download the Tesseract-OCR form https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki
