-ocr-text-extraction
-===================
+## Requirements
 
-I am not actively supporting this script. It was just an experiment.
+`sudo apt-get install python-imaging`
 
-Processes an image to extract the text portions. Primarily
-used for pre-processing for performing OCR.
+`sudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr`
 
-Implemented in Python using OpenCV.
+`sudo apt-get install python-opencv`
+
+## Example
+
+![Before processing](http://raw.githubusercontent.com/schollz/ocr-text-extraction/master/test.jpg)
+
+1. First process the image
+
+`python process_image.py test.jpg text.jpg`
+
+![After processing](http://raw.githubusercontent.com/schollz/ocr-text-extraction/master/text.jpg)
+
+2. Extract text
+
+`python extract_text.py`
+
+Output:
+
+```bash
