OCR

OCR pulls text out of an image or PDF. Items OCR-01 to OCR-05 describe a printed page, ruq'ah handwriting, a poor scan, an invoice, and a vocalised text. Sample files are not in the repo yet, so there is no character-error rate. If a source shows an Arabic example, such as Mistral's launch post, we quote it as a vendor claim, not a result. Prices are often usage-based and may be unverified.

Questions

Can they turn an image into a Word file that matches the original?

That is what the test will measure once samples exist. There is no accuracy figure today.
