Simple python library for recognition text from image

ocr, python, python-3.x

Solution

I used pytesser. Very easy to learn, and did a great job for me. If you don't like this option, search for 'python OCR library'

Problem

I'm looking for a simple python library for text recognition from images. Images are similar to this: The image contains a very pure and simple - one line, numbers and hyphens, but the resolution is low. I would like something similar (in an ideal): ``` text = recognize(open('image.png', 'rb').read()) ``` Does something similar exists? Thanks. UPD I know about pytesser and OCRopus. But as far as I understand they don't support Python 3.x.
