dear LEELA_SIDDARDHA_ANNA.

Thank you of posting.

First of all, have you read what is written here?

Hint: Old versions of the installer had an option to add Tesseract to the PATH environment variable. That option was disabled by default. If it was enabled and PATH was very long, it could happen that the new PATH was empty. to use that option and disabled it in our latest version.

If you access Tesseract from Spyder or Python, you must access the API with the following content.

github.com

tesseract-ocr/tessdoc/blob/main/APIExample.md

# API examples

This documentation provides simple examples on how to use the tesseract-ocr API (v3.02.02-4.0.0) in C++.
It is expected that tesseract-ocr is correctly installed including all dependencies.
It is expected the user is familiar with C++, compiling and linking program on their platform, [though basic compilation examples are included for beginners with Linux](#compiling-c-api-programs-on-linux).

More details about tesseract-ocr API can be found at [baseapi.h](https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/blob/main/include/tesseract/baseapi.h).



## Basic example

Code:

```c++
#include <tesseract/baseapi.h>
#include <leptonica/allheaders.h>

int main()
{

The above content describes how to access the C API from Python, but basically both Linux and Windows have the same mechanism. However, since the file corresponding to ‘libtesseract.so’ is a DLL file, where is it? must be specified.

If you have tried those steps and it still doesn’t work, please try posting again.

Regards, you.
