Date read (dd/mm/yy) from PDF but output (dd1mm1yy)

Greetings,

As mentioned from the topic above, I try getting date format from PDF using OCR Get Text. However, the output appear as 1 instead of “/” . For example:

31/01/2021 but the GET OCR Text output: 3110112021

Really appreciate for solution to get output 31/01/2021.
