Document OCR in Pega Robotics
Hi Team,
I have a requirement of extracting text from a hand written PDF file.
So i used Document OCR to extract text ,But i am getting junk values. Could anyone help me to resolve this.
Thanks,

Are there images in this scanned PDF? There is a possibility of images or something else throwing off the Abby Reader. Using the parameter "OCR Dictionary Type" you can specify what type of characters for OCR to look for and output. This parameter may help in removing the junk values that you see. http://help.openspan.com/80/Components/DocumentOCR_Component.htm

Hi, Thank you for your response. The PDF which is scanned is hand written. Please refer the attachment.

The OCR component is not guaranteed to work with handwritten text. Unfortunately, it was not designed to work with handwritten text. The component was originally designed for printed documents that are scanned (rather than written text). Further explanation can be found on ABBYY's KB Articles - https://abbyy.technology/en:kb:faq:recognizing_handprinted_text.
