Hey, when building an exe with Pyinstaller from a python file that uses PaddleOCR I get a "No module named 'ppocr' error" (attached a screenshot). How do I fix it? \nThe code I'm using is just the most barebones one to find out how to create an exe file with PaddleOCR:\n`import paddleocr\nocr = paddleocr.PaddleOCR()\npath = input('input path: ')\nresult = ocr.ocr(path)\nprint(result)

Issue Response

• ✨ Introduction: Thanks for opening this issue, I am the issue bot that will help you with your questoins!
• 🎯 First round response: The answer to your question is:

To fix the error with Pyinstaller and PaddleOCR, you can try the following steps:

1. Clone the PaddleOCR project by running the following command:

git clone https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR

2. Install the required third-party libraries by navigating to the PaddleOCR directory and running the command:

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

3. If you encounter the error "OSError: [WinError 126] The specified module could not be found" when installing shapely on Windows, you can try downloading the Shapely whl file from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#shapely and installing it manually.

These steps should help resolve the "No module named 'ppocr'" error when building an executable with Pyinstaller using PaddleOCR.
