Tesseract是一个开源的OCR（Optical Character Recognition，光学字符识别）引擎，可以识别多种格式的图像文件并将其转换成文本，目前已支持60多种语言（包括中文）。 Tesseract最初由HP公司开发，后来由Google接盘填坑。

即:api.SetRectangle(0, 0, x, y);
最后说一下安装版的cmd调用方法：
tesseract.exe input result -l chi_sim
input:输入图片
result;输出文本
-l 字体库资源
chi_sim 中文大陆
字体库资源在tessdata文件夹下：
输入图片：
输出图片：
一般都是用jTessBoxEditor进行矫正错误并训练，ps：需要java环境，还是比较麻烦的。
最终生成的也是字体库资源，即在tessdata文件夹下的*.traineddata。如果普通业务需求的话建议从网上或者其他途径获取比较适合自己使用的库资源。
当然如果你的图像文字存在一些规律性或者对输出要把控的很严谨的话还是建议自己训练吧。
