		systematical on July 30, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Open Source OCR in JavaScript Hand writing my name Chris was difficult for it to pick up. It kept thinking my "C" was an "L" and putting spaces in between letters. Also determined my "S" was an underscore. Still pretty cool. Thanks!

Looks like underscore character ("_") is used when the letter can't be determined - so in fact it had no idea what your "S" was ^_^
