Error opening data file Tesseract-OCR\tessdata/eng.traineddata问题解决

在安装完tesseract, pytesseract后执行测试命令，发现打印如下错误：

Error opening data file \Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata/eng.traineddata
Please make sure the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable is set to the parent directory of your "tessdata" directory.
Failed loading language 'eng'
Tesseract couldn't load any languages!
Could not initialize tesseract.

一看上面的提示就是路径有问题，windows路径是\的 
解决办法，添加TESSDATA_PREFIX的环境变量，设置为安装目录下的tessdata目录 
如:D:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata

如果还是不行，设置了环境变量可能需要重启下才生效

最快捷的试验方法是，命令行设置环境变量后测试

SET TESSDATA_PREFIX=D:\Program Files (x86)\Tesseract-OCR\tessdata
