I am pleased to announce the release of GNU Ocrad 0.28.
GNU Ocrad is an OCR (Optical Character Recognition) program and library
based on a feature extraction method. It reads images in png or pnm formats
and produces text in byte (8-bit) or UTF-8 formats.
Ocrad includes a layout analyser able to separate the columns and blocks of
text normally found on printed pages.
Ocrad can be used as a stand-alone console application, or as a backend to
other programs.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ocrad/ocrad.html
The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ocrad/
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ocrad/ or from your favorite GNU
mirror.
The sha256sum is:

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending
'.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't
have the required public key, then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 8FE99503132D7742
Key fingerprint = 1D41 C14B 272A 2219 A739 FA4F 8FE9 9503 132D 7742
Changes in version 0.28:
* Support for PNG images has been implemented using libpng.
* The variables AR and ARFLAGS can now be set from configure. (Before you
needed to run 'make AR=<ar_command>'.
* The version test macro 'OCRAD_API_VERSION' and the function
'OCRAD_api_version' are now declared in the header file 'ocradlib.h'. They
tell to the application the version of the library.
* Many minor fixes and improvements have been made.
Please send bug reports and suggestions to bug-ocrad@gnu.org
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU Ocrad author and maintainer.
