Tips for Better Hindi OCR Results

Use Clear Images

Higher resolution images with good lighting produce better Hindi text recognition. Avoid blurry or dark photos.

Crop to Text Area

Crop your image to show only the Hindi text area. Removing background clutter improves accuracy significantly.

Straight Alignment

Text that's straight and horizontal is recognized more accurately than tilted or curved Hindi text.

Select Correct Language

Always select Hindi as the OCR language before extraction. This tells the engine which script to expect and improves accuracy.
