To install Tesseract on your Databricks cluster, you can use the following command

%sh apt-get install -y tesseract-ocr

After installing Tesseract, you need to add the path to the Tesseract executable file to your PATH environment variable. To do this, you can run the following command in a Databricks notebook:

%sh echo 'export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc

This command adds the path to the Tesseract executable file to your PATH environment variable and makes it accessible to your Databricks notebook.

Check if Tesseract OCR is installed on your Databricks cluster. You can do this by running the following command in a Databricks notebook:

%sh which tesseract

After following these steps, you should be able to use pytesseract in your Databricks notebook without encountering the "TesseractNotFoundError" error.
