Recommendations for improving recognition rates and protecting sensitive information

  • Pictures taken head-on, with larger text, simple backgrounds, and clear contrast are generally easier to identify.
  • Tables, formulas, handwriting, artistic fonts, vertical and multi-column layouts may lose structure or order.
  • Sensitive images such as ID cards, contracts, medical records, and account information will be uploaded to the server, and they should be confirmed to be necessary and privacy requirements observed before processing.

Frequently asked questions

Picture extraction text common problems

Can OCR retain the original layout and tables?

The current results are mainly pure text, which cannot guarantee the retention of fonts, coordinates, tables and multi-column structures, and complex typesetting may cause order changes.

What text is supported for recognition?

The current interface description supports common characters such as Chinese, numbers, and English. The specific recognition effect depends on the font, clarity, and OCR service capabilities.

Are pictures recognized locally?

No. Images are uploaded to the /api/image/ocr cloud interface for identification; use caution when containing sensitive information.
