Hi There,

I'm looking to perform a text recognition function.

Here's what I need:

- I am given an image, of lets say 100x75 pixels in size.
- The image may or may not contain text.
- The text would be a computer font and not handwritte.
- If it does contain text, it is always the same font, colour and text size.
- It may contain up to around 20 characters.
- If text is found, the routine would pass this back to the calling function as a string.

Does anyone know of a free (it's a hobby project! ) library that would do this for me? Failing that, a tutorial of how I might get started into doing this myself?

Many Thanks

BW
