i\'m using the tessnet2 wrapper to the Tesseract 2.04 Source on windows XP, configured it to work with x86.
TessarctTest project main function contains:
In my case I set the tessdata files to copy always, and then it didn't crash on the init line.
In my case the answer from dkr88 did the job, thanks a lot. I guess there some dependency corrupt when tesseract was installed as a standalone before. Furthermore, the OCR-quality seems to be better than with MODI although tiltcorrection os the latter is working under more extreme circumstances (vertical text).
I'm pretty happy with tessnet2 now. There is only one drawback: I needed to change my app.config (as described on the internet) and added the following:
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0"/>
</startup>
