问题:

I want to extract text (mainly numbers) from images like this

I tried this code

import pytesseract
from PIL import Image

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r'C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe'
img = Image.open('1.jpg')
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(img, lang='eng')
print(text)

but all i get is this (hE PPAR)

When performing OCR, it is important to preprocess the image so the desired text to detect is in black with the background in white. To do this, here's a simple approach using OpenCV to Otsu's threshold the image which will result in a binary image. Here's the image after preprocessing:

We use the --psm 6 configuration setting to treat the image as a uniform block of text. Here's other configuration options you can try. Result from Pytesseract

Code

import cv2
import pytesseract

pytesseract.pytesseract.tesseract_cmd = r"C:\Program Files\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe"

image = cv2.imread('1.png', 0)
thresh = cv2.threshold(image, 0, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY_INV + cv2.THRESH_OTSU)[1]

data = pytesseract.image_to_string(thresh, lang='eng',config='--psm 6')
print(data)

cv2.imshow('thresh', thresh)
cv2.waitKey()
