1.PIL报错

1504         return tuple(ims)

2.PIL报错

IOError: decoder zip not available

重装PIL（需要安装支持jpeg和zip的PIL）

[root@test-22 src]# python test.py

3.pytesseract报错

[root@test-22 src]# python pytesseract.py test.png 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "pytesseract.py", line 203, in 
    main()
  File "pytesseract.py", line 188, in main
    print(image_to_string(image))
  File "pytesseract.py", line 162, in image_to_string
    config=config)
  File "pytesseract.py", line 94, in run_tesseract
    stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1228, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory

pdb跟踪发现是tesseract(可执行文件)找不着

https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/wiki/Compiling 源码安装tesseract-orc，然后还要从这个官网下载各种语言的数据（训练数据）

结果

[root@test-22 src]# cat test.py
#encoding=utf-8

if __name__ == '__main__':
    try:
        import Image
    except ImportError:
        from PIL import Image
    import pytesseract
    print(pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open('test.png')))
    print('-'*30)
    print(pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open('ch.png'), lang='chi_sim'))
[root@test-22 src]# python test.py
This is a lot of 12 point text to test the
ocr code and see if it works on all types
of file format.
