<![CDATA[Most of Indonesian organizations either it is government or non government sometime required their member to provide their identity card (E-KTP) as legal document collection in their database. This collection of image usually being used as manual verification method. These document images acquired by each person with their own device, there are variations of angles they are used to acquire the image. This situation created problems in text recognition by OCR softwares especially in text detection part, orientation and noise will affect their accuracy. These cases making the text detection more complex and cannot be solved by simple vertical projection profile of black pixels. This research proposed a method to improve text detection in identity document by fixing the orientation first, then using MSER regions to form text region. We fix the orientation using the line that made by Progressive Probabilistic Hough Transform. Then we used MSER to obtain all candidate regions and Horizontal RLSA acts as connector between those candidate. The orientation fixing strategy reach average of margin error 0.377o (in 360o system) and the text detection method reach 84.49% accuracy in best condition.]]>
