Extract Digital Numbers from Image

Hi All.
I have lots of scale images that I would like to extract the scale reading from. I have looked through many sources such as "ocr" but when applying that it doesn't read the numbers shown. Attached is an image after processing (cropping. brightining..etc). I appreciate if someone can help me find a way to extract the numbers out of the image.

I don't know - it just doesn't like the 2 in that font. It thinks it's an 8 for some reason. This is what I got so far. I'm getting a new computer tomorrow so I may not be able to work on it for a day or two.

I tried it with my new computer and developed a solution for seven segment LED displays that uses masking to examine the 7 locations where a segment would be. From the pattern or lit or non-lit, I can turn that into a number. It works, as in the attached demo.
I got word from a developer on the Computer Vision team that the ocr() function was not trained for seven segment characters. Still it's surprising how bad it is for certain numbers like thinking a 2 was an 8 and the 8 was a 9.

You can simply use ocr command to do that. Refer to this documentation for some example, which would be a good starting point for you to take it forward.

@Image Analyst OCR behaves wierd. I just tune the masking factor, and getting 137.313.
mask = conv2(double(mask), ones(windowSize)/windowSize^2, 'full') > 0.3;
I replaced 0.5 to 0.3. I played around masking thresholds and all, but not getting the exact value.
