📚 Professional Tips for Optimal OCR Results
- Image Quality: Use 300+ DPI resolution for printed text, minimum 150 DPI for digital text
- Lighting & Contrast: Ensure even lighting without shadows or glare. High contrast between text and background improves accuracy by 40%
- Alignment: Keep text horizontal (max 5° tilt) and avoid perspective distortion. Use document scanning apps for mobile capture
- Font Considerations: Standard fonts (Arial, Times New Roman, Calibri) achieve 95%+ accuracy. Handwriting recognition requires clear, separated characters
- Preprocessing: Enable advanced processing for noisy or low-quality images. Use grayscale conversion for color documents with poor contrast
- Multi-language Documents: For documents with multiple languages, process sections separately or use auto-detection mode
- Verification: Always proofread extracted text, especially for critical documents. Use spell-check on the results
