Hi Robots,
I try to use Microsoft OCR engine on Greek text. In the uipath documentation i read that you can use any language installed on the PC. Although in my pc Greek is the main language the drop down shows only English
Even when i try to put Greek language in the properties of the activity by hand although it doesn’t give a warning for not recognized language again it doesn’t work for any Greek character
Hi @Poulos_Spyros,
Please write “greek” in ‘Language’ field and try. I haven’t ‘Greek’ language in my laptop so, I can’t verify.
I’m attaching a screenshot, please have a look.
Thanks & Regards,
Apurba
Thanks but but it doesn’t work. I have already tried this and it gives the same result as if it is set to English.
Does not recognize any Greek character.
@Poulos_Spyros Have a look here.Hope it helps.
Hi @Poulos_Spyros,
According to the ‘UiPath Documentation’ you should write all letters in small case like “greek”. I found in the screenshot that you wrote “Greek”. However I don’t know whether it will work or not, but please have a try.
Microsoft OCR Link
Thanks & Regards,

Here you are… Thanks for keep trying
The majority of documents we have to process are not typed PDFs but scanned documents like the one i attach now. Is there any other way to extract the text out of OCR?2.pdf (43.0 KB)
Hi @Poulos_Spyros,
I have tried few ‘OCR Engines’ along with ‘Microsoft OCR’, but all of these are trying to read .pdf files with ‘English’ language.
Thanks & Regards,

@apurba2samanta I think the free version of Microsoft OCR is not supporting to read other languages, try giving a shot using Computer Vision or Google Cloud Vision OCR which has Machine Learning Capabilities, you can get a API key as trail from google or Microsoft azure.
