This is a more complex infographic with a lot of textual information & not great image resolution.

Let's dive in each OCR Engine showing you how BBOXHelper supports the coherence of the textual output.

Here we do have a more concise output, clearly isolating each blocks of text of this infographic. We see the influence of an X axis sorting.

Good job already in isolating the blocks and paragraphs. BBoxHelper would not provide too much enhancements given this output, just re-building sentences and getting rid of too much CR/LF.

Conclusion

With this example we can see that both outputs are more aligned after BBoxing whether you use Azure OCR or Google OCR you would get a similar output.

This sort of consistency regardless of the OCR engine is what this project is about.
