## I found a way for python.

**First install tesseract like this:**

`sudo apt-get install tesseract`

**Then you can use it as below:**

`tesseract example.jpg out`

**install pytesseract using pip:**

`pip install pytesseract`

**install pillow if not done yet:**

`pip install pillow`

**install tesseract-ocr:**

`sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr`

* * *

Then use it in your python code like this:

`from PIL import Image  
import pytesseract

# path to your file

im = Image.open(‘test.png’)  
print pytesseract.image\_to\_string(im)`
