We found that a typical root cause for bad/wrong OCR results is that the pink box (that marks the area for text recognition) is made too small. This is especially true for number OCR.
Solution:
Add more white space around the text
And (for number OCR) to include some additional text (e. g. the label). If you do not need the text part, you can remove it after the OCR by splitting the OCR result string.
