OCR on hand-written english text and digits?
Question
Does it also perform OCR on hand-written english text and digits? I have a form - table in which students have to write the answers which are either english words or digits. I want to automate the process of digitizing this hand-written forms into a .csv or excel form more reliably and seeking for open-source options.
@xfab-hari Docling offers multiple choices for OCR, among which are EasyOCR, RapidOCR, Tesseract, and ocrmac. The results of the docling conversion will depend how these engines can handle handwriting recognition.
Closing this issue as it seems to be related to the OCR engines and not to Docling.
