I wonder, is there some powerful handwriting recognition libraries which can work not only with separate characters, but with whole words and sentences?

Dude what is a word but something made up with characters? What do you mean by work with words? – Thihara May 19 '13 at 14:25

When you write you make connections between characters, and machine which recognize only letters can't separate them. I'm looking for an engine that can recognize the whole word or will be able to separate handwriting word into characters. – Eugene May 19 '13 at 14:32

It's seemed to me, it was written in C. And I'm looking for Java libraries – Eugene May 19 '13 at 14:28

Try http://sourceforge.net/projects/hwrecogntool, that's written in Java ;-) – Big Rich Nov 07 '14 at 13:48

Tesseract-OCR is primarily meant for printed character recognition and hence cannot efficiently be used for hand writing recognition – Psi-Ed Jul 17 '17 at 19:10
