This is a new pre-release of Tesseract 5.0.0.

It has massive changes in the public API which is a great step towards a final 5.0.0. All unit tests pass, but because of those changes more practical experience is needed.

• the public API no longer uses proprietary data types GenericVector, STRING
• pdf.ttf is no longer needed because it is now integrated into the code
