--------------------------------------------------------

[~chrismattmann], do you know when we can expect this OCR parser to appear in released version (i.e. is there any expected release date for Tika 1.7)?
Would there be any RC / beta version that can be used?

I can see that previous versions of Tika used to be released each half year or so and it puts 1.7 release date somewhere in Feb 2015. Does it sounds right?

> I don't know of any decent open source pure Java OCR libraries, but there are command line OCR tools like Tesseract (http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/) that could be invoked by Tika to extract text content (where available) from image files.
