Solution

  • Problem is "Unicharset_extractor" not install in your system. So please install tesseract training tools

    INSTALL TRAINING TOOL

    brew install --with-training-tools tesseract

    Please uninstall tesseract if you already installed it.

    UNINSTALL TESSERACT

    brew uninstall tesseract

    NOTE: please read logs while install training tools and follow the steps which mentioned in logs.

    It’ll take some more time to install the training tool so you’ll never quiet the terminal meantime.

    Please install Homebrew before work out above command.
