+Python-tesseract is an optical character recognition (OCR) tool for python.
+That is, it will recognize and “read” the text embedded in images.
+
+Python-tesseract is a wrapper for Google’s Tesseract-OCR Engine. It is also
+useful as a stand-alone invocation script to tesseract, as it can read all
+image types supported by the Pillow and Leptonica imaging libraries, including
+jpeg, png, gif, bmp, tiff, and others. Additionally, if used as a script,
+Python-tesseract will print the recognized text instead of writing it to a
+file.
