[Question]: How can I extract text automatically segmented as per the layout

[shubhamworks]

Describe your problem

If there is a pdf with 2 columns with headings and tables. I want to extract the text/OCR result separately for individual layout segments. How can I do it directly just by using deepdoc?

You need to use layout recognizer. Please look into code in rag/app. May this help.

Layout recogniser only returns the layout (bounding box and corresponding label). However it doesn't return the text data in that box. Any direct function or code for that?

[KevinHuSh]

This function is for this purpose.
