I didn't try the app yet but I use an app called "Yomiwa" to OCR Japanese. The biggest issue I find is that it seems to be trained on black on white images so if I try to OCR a sign with different colors, or some text on a product or menu, it often fails. For example I just tried it on the ingredients of the label of the soda I'm drinking which is white on black and it's completely failing.
- vicedvin 5y agoMasking the background and making text black would solve this. I have used OpenCV for that before.
- rjzzleep 5y agoOCRmyPDF does that. Given the name I assume it's only for PDFs given the name, but theoretically it should work for any image without the need to extract it from the PDF. https://github.com/jbarlow83/OCRmyPDF https://github.com/jbarlow83/OCRmyPDF
