Frequently Asked Questions

Mistral OCR uses advanced AI to recognize text in images and scanned documents, perfect for handwriting and poor quality scans. PDF text extraction works with PDFs that already contain embedded text layers. Try PDF text first for faster results, then Mistral OCR if that doesn't work well.

Yes, our Mistral OCR engine can recognize handwritten text including cursive writing, printed letters, and mixed content. Accuracy depends on handwriting clarity - printed text works best, followed by clear cursive. Signatures are extracted but may not be perfectly readable as text.

Accuracy ranges from 95-99% for high-quality typed documents to 80-95% for handwritten content. Factors affecting accuracy include scan quality, document language, font type, and background noise. Higher resolution scans (300 DPI or more) produce best results.
