CUNEIFORM(1)		   multi-language OCR system		  CUNEIFORM(1)

NAME
       cuneiform - multi-language OCR system

SYNOPSIS
       cuneiform  [--dotmatrix]	 [--fax] [--singlecolumn] [-f format] [-l lan‐
       guage] [-o output] input

DESCRIPTION
       Cuneiform is an OCR system. In addition to  text	 recognition  it  also
       does  layout  analysis  and text format recognition. Cuneiform supports
       several languages.

OPTIONS
       --dotmatrix
	   Use recognition mode optimized for text printed with a  dot	matrix
	   printer.

       --fax
	   Use recognition mode optimized for text that has been faxed.

       --singlecolumn
	   Disable page layout analysis and assumes that the image consists of
	   only one column of text.

       -f format
	   Select output format. The following	formats	 are  available:  html
	   (HTML  format),  hocr  (hOCR HTML format), native (native Cuneiform
	   2000), rtf (RTF format),  smarttext	(plain	text  with  TeX	 para‐
	   graphs), text (plain text).	The default is plain text.

       -l language
	   By  default	Cuneiform  recognizes English text. To change the lan‐
	   guage use the command line switch -l followed by  a	language  code
	   (typically an ISO 639-2 three-letter code). The following languages
	   are supported:

	   bul	    Bulgarian
	   cze	    Czech
	   dan	    Danish
	   dut	    Dutch
	   eng	    English
	   est	    Estonian
	   fra	    French
	   ger	    German
	   hrv	    Croatian
	   hun	    Hungarian
	   ita	    Italian
	   lav	    Latvian
	   lit	    Lithuanian
	   pol	    Polish
	   por	    Portugese
	   rum	    Romanian
	   rus	    Russian
	   ruseng   mixed Russian/English
	   slv	    Slovenian
	   spa	    Spanish
	   srp	    Serbian
	   swe	    Swedish

	   tur	    Turkish
	   ukr	    Ukrainian

       -o output
	   If you do not define an output file with the -o  switch,  Cuneiform
	   writes the result to a file ‘cuneiform-out.format’. The file exten‐
	   sion depends on your output format.

INPUT FORMAT
       Cuneiform can process any single-page image that	 GraphicsMagick	 knows
       how to open. Please consult the gm(1) manual page for the comprehensive
       list of supported image formats.
