Revizor is an OCR editor written in Javascript (front-end) and Python (backend). The following blog post gives an overview over its architecture:

This document and its children contain a dump of technical information included with Revizor on how to install it and how to use some of the included tools.

 

Note: Revizor uses virtualenv, a Python tool for isolating the application from the system and installing needed Python packages in an own virtual environment. If you get weird errors about missing packages, remember to run the virtualenv setup script first, so the package root points to the application's package installation folders and not the system-wide one.

For example:

wouter@kkv54:~/Projects/OCRUI$ ./export.py -h
