Hi,
I too am looking to report the location of text in an image. The text is always horizontal so would consist of white space between each line and multiple white space between each letter approximately evenly spaced. If ImageJ can do this then it would really really help me.
Some pages may be picture images so I'd like a negative result for those.
Thanks

if you want to extract text in image, you need some OCR library to do this. if you want to use free tool, you can try Tesseract OCR engine, it's an open source library, can detect text from image and get the text position in the image.
