I've been using the OCR features with a certain amount of success, but inevitably it doesn't work all of the time. In particular the OCR seems to be much worse as soon as it encounters white text on a dark background. Internet opinion seems divided as to whether Tesseract is just like this, or whether it shouldn't be a problem...

I've also been noticing that Region.text() sometimes finds text that find(text) doesn't. 

In any case, I'd like to try to debug this and understand it, and potentially ask the Tesseract people for tips. Is there some kind of documentation or guide to how Sikulix uses Tesseract, for example comparable to the explanation for how it uses OpenCV?  Is there an equivalent to find(text) in Tesseract, or is that algorithm implemented entirely in Sikuli?
