Restrictions for the current version of text recognition

Written by
Yandex Cloud
Updated at August 20, 2024

Text recognition currently works with a number of restrictions. Make sure to consider them before getting started:

  • You will see a single language for all recognized words, even though they are recognized in all languages from the supported model. For example, if you specify ["en", "ar"] and the text has mostly English words, all words will be marked as en, including those in Arabic.
  • The text recognition feature may have difficulties with:
    • Artistic fonts.
    • Vertical text (when a word is written top to bottom).
    • Forms where each character is typed in a separate cell.
    • Very large font size, e.g., when one word takes up half of the image.
