How to recognize MICR codes in Android

Question

I am trying to find the way to OCR the MICR codes from document. For that I used Tesseract library, Using this I got success in recognizing texts but when it comes to MICR it fails to recognize that.

Here is the sample MICR image which I want to read:

This is a MICR E-13B fonts (more info).

So is there any open source library to recognize MICR codes for Android? I found Leadtools SDK which provides this functionality but that is paid.

Answer 1

You can use Tesseract with mcr.traineddata language data file.
