Tips for better OCR accuracy

Higher resolution helps when the text is small.

High contrast — dark text on a light background reads more reliably.

Crop tight around the text if the photo has a busy background.

Keep text upright — straighten rotated photos before upload when you can.

Prefer typed text — handwriting OCR is harder and may miss characters.
