I am trying to develop my first OCR app using tesseract. I’m developing under Windows XP using Eclipse and targeting Android 2.1+

  1. do i need cygwin?

    1. No, you do not need Cygwin.
    2. Yes, you need to have the Android NDK installed.

    Gautam’s tutorial is the best tutorial for using Tesseract OCR on Android.
