Getting accurate OCR results

Accuracy depends on the image. Sharp, straight, well-lit photos with clear contrast produce the best text. Screenshots and clean scans are close to perfect; a photo of a crumpled receipt taken at an angle is much harder. Cropping to the text before uploading removes distractions.

What OCR cannot do

OCR turns pixels into characters; it does not understand the content. Tables, handwriting, unusual fonts, logos and low-resolution text often come out imperfect. Always proofread the extracted text before using it in a document, and keep the original image as the reference.

Working with the extracted text

Copy the result into your editor and fix line breaks and hyphenation, which OCR often guesses incorrectly. For long documents, extract page by page so errors are easier to trace. If the text is in a language with accents, check those characters carefully.
