Issue with words with special symbols' recognition

OCR.space Free OCR API

Hello guys!

I’m using OCR.Space Free and have an issue with words with special symbols’ recognition.

E.g. here’s the word I can’t recognize: “-{Андрей}-” (russian language).
Here’s the overlay: ScreenShot.bmp — Yandex.Disk
And here’s the source image: _1.jpg — Yandex.Disk

I don’t want to have special symbols - screw them. But can I somehow get the rest of the word without special symbols? I mean instead of “-{Андрей}-” can I somehow get “Андрей”?

Kindly ask for your advice!
Thank you! :slight_smile:

I have a way to get them in English characters, but not Cyrillic. Would that help?

Certainly! Everything’s better than a blank space.
Which parameters do you use?

I used an internal test version. But the first public beta will be available next week already :slight_smile:

I will update this post with more details next week.
