How to convert a Python program (.py) to Application (.exe) which is a Tesseract-OCR dependent?

Question

I tried to convert my python code file to an application using the pyinstaller package. It's all set!

When I try to open the app file in the dist folder, on a computer which doesn't have python installed, the app's functionality is not good. It's not working properly (according to what I actually coded it for).

I'm mentioning this because the .exe file was tend to run on any system irrespective of the system having the Python installed (the same runs perfectly on my system which has python installed).

The thing is, I also have Tesserat-OCR installed on my system which seems to be mandating its existence on the any system that runs the application. If so, how can I do it without having to require it in the system?

So, how could it be done so as to build it better?

does the operating system changes on different machine? – Jainil Patel Jun 13 '19 at 10:05 — Jainil Patel, Jun 13 '19 at 10:05

The python software foundation has recently done a post on this: https://packaging.python.org/overview/

What you are asking is how to package your python programme into an executable.

py2exe if you are only using Windows is quite popular.
