OCRFeeder v0.4 Released

[Joaquim Rocha <joaquimrocha1 gmail com>]

Hi folks,

OCRFeeder version 0.4 as just been released.

What is OCRFeeder
===============

OCRFeeder is a document layout analysis and optical character recognition system.

Given the images it will automatically outline its contents, distinguish between what's graphics and text and perform OCR over the latter. It generates multiple formats being its main one ODT.

It
features a complete GTK+ GUI that allows users
to correct any unrecognized characters, define or correct bounding
boxes, set paragraph styles, clean the input images, import PDFs, save
and load the project, export everything to multiple formats, etc.

In this version
===========

* Add the debian package generation
* Add Tesseract's example configuration file
* Add pot file
* Development setup possible by using the local folder
  instead of only accepting the system's resources one
  when the latter does not exist (thanks to P. Christeas)
* The background color of the page area is now equal to
  the system's normal state's background color
* The page now shows a frame around it, for a better
  visualization
* Continue the execution even if an engine fails to be
  recognized (thanks to P. Christeas)
