Current Behavior:

Using tesseract 5 via pytesseract and it throws the error:

pytesseract.image_to_string(cell_img, lang='eng')).strip() File "/data/anaconda3/envs/tabstructnet_py_3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 417, in image_to_string }output_type File "/data/anaconda3/envs/tabstructnet_py_3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 416, in Output.STRING: lambda: run_and_get_output(*args), File "/data/anaconda3/envs/tabstructnet_py_3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 284, in run_and_get_output run_tesseract(**kwargs) File "/data/anaconda3/envs/tabstructnet_py_3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 260, in run_tesseract raise TesseractError(proc.returncode, get_errors(error_string)) pytesseract.pytesseract.TesseractError: (-8, 'Estimating resolution as 1600')

Expected Behavior:

Tried increasing the timeout value but still kept getting the error.
