Fairly frequently, OCR engines are posted here. But almost without exception, they lack layout analysis, which renders them largely useless.
Is this something that could be combined with those OCR engines? (e.g. TesseractOCR...)
- 2_listerine_pls 10y agosome services allow you to set the layout manually: Docparser
- eumm 10y agoPDF.co offline tool (for Windows) supports OCR and partial OCR for pdf to text and pdf to csv with layout preserved. (disclaimer: i work on it)
- RandomBookmarks 10y agoI would not call these services useless ;) - but I wonder the same... Some apis like https://ocr.space https://ocr.space return the coordinates of each converted word. Can that be a used input? (I have not tried it yet)
- PretzelFisch 10y agoephesoft seems to use this for classifying and data extraction from documents.
