Anyone who has ever tried his hand on any open source OCR application would know how pathetic and painful they are. There are simply not upto the mark. Thankfully Google is attempting to revive, a old HP's OCR application named, Tesseract and has released it as open source on sourceforge.
According to a reviewer from Linux.com, the tool showed an accuracy of >94% in its preliminary tests which imho is simply awesome. The tool is still a CLI only application but it shows so much promise that it will make any Linux user excited
