Written for Cuneiform for Linux by pfister on 2012-03-23

My name is Urs and I proposed Jussi to maintin this page. There will not be very much time, but I will do my best to help the project. And yes, I know that my English is limited, but I think it is better to have a maintainer with limited English skills than to have no maintainer.

Cuneiform OCR system has been ported to Linux

Written for Cuneiform for Linux by Jussi Pakkanen on 2008-06-27

Cuneiform is a commercial grade OCR system developed and open sourced by Cognitive technologies. The code worked originally only on Windows. This is the first release of Cuneiform that works natively on Linux. This first release is rather bare-boned, it only recognizes a single column of text. Future releases are expected to unleash Cuneiform's powerful layout analysis system and other features.

Most of the porting was done by Jussi Pakkanen, with help from Keith Beaumont, Vincent Wagelaar and others.
