✅What files work best
- Scanned PDFs and photographed documents: OCR extracts the text automatically
- JPG / PNG images: posters, receipts, book-page screenshots and more
- PDFs with a text layer: extracted directly — faster and more accurate
💡Recognition Tips
- For scans, 300 DPI or higher works best — keep pages straight with little skew for better accuracy
- Defaults to mixed English + Chinese (chi_sim+eng) recognition, great for Chinese documents
- The first run downloads recognition language data, so a longer wait is normal
