If you're still interested I would like to suggest that you have a look at this MTG-card reading project on GitHub. ConclusionДЄll this considered, my answer to you is that you need to do both preprocessing of the card image AND to train Tesseract. An untrained Tesseract tend to mix them up. This is due to the special text font used on the cards (which happens to be different fonts depending on the age of the card!). Need for TrainingД«ut even if you manage to create a perfect preprocessing algorithm you will still have to train Tesseract.

How to handle split cards? Will your algorithm manage white borders? What if the card is rotated or upside-down? just to name a few. With this said, there is a number of problems you will encounter. How to create a basic preprocessing is shown in the YouTube video Automatic MTG card sorting: Part 2 - Automatic perspective correction with OpenCV Also have a look at the third part in that serie.

This opens the Card stack sheet, and displays any cards the stack may contain. Gamemasters, Assistants, and other players with permissions to view card stacks can do so by clicking on a card stack in the Cards Directory.

Use contours to identify the exact text area, and crop it out. Card stacks in Foundry VTT can be viewed, created, and managed from the Cards Directory Sidebar tab.

Cut out the title area for further processing.

PreprocessingД«asically, you want to get the title text, and only the title text, for Tesseract to read. I believe you're on the right track, doing preprocessing.Д«ut you will need doing both preprocessing AND training Tesseract.
