You've been here long enough to know that this is really not lounge material - QA would be a better place. Delete it quick, or don your asbestos undercrackers!

I have to agree with Mick. He hasn't actually asked how to do this, merely if it's supported. To my mind, this is no different to asking if Word supports equation editing.

Hi, Since I couldn't find any useful links through Google search.. I'm posting the same question on a Mighty forum .. CP..:thumbsup: Can Someone tell me "Does OpenCV support optical character recognition [OCR] for Non English scripts" ? .. like Chinese , Japanese. Thanks in advance.

I'm going to don my flameproof suit here because I'm about to ask you something that some people don't like. Are you sure that your requirement is to use OpenCV? From what I can gather, adding the ability to support things like Japanese is considered very, very difficult in OpenCV. Bear in mind that it's not really a dedicated OCR system. If you need to use a dedicated OCR library, it's my understanding that the open source library to use is Tesseract[^]. The page I've linked to has all the latest language files that it supports.

Hi, Sorry, If I have offended someone by posting my question here. Also, I thought this question was just a Yes/No query and won't need someone's efforts in digging into technical details. I'll be cautious to pick the right forum, here on when I post questions on CP. Thanks.:thumbsup:

Hi , Thanks a lot for your informative post. To brief about my requirements, I will be using OpenCV for couple of Image processing algorithms. Also, I am planning to incorporate OCR for non English characters, and hence this question. And, my app won't be a dedicated OCR system. OCR would be just an add-on. Thanks again for "Tesseract" link, this is the first time I have heard about it.

Vijay, you didn't break the lounge rules here so I wouldn't worry about it.
