JSON results example doesn't match script output

[al-vincent]

I appreciate that the quickstart is just an example. However, if the code provided is run against the image, the results returned are different to the results displayed in the JSON shown, presumably due to small changes in the image processing algorithms (the words discovered are identical of course, but the bounding boxes are not quite the same). This may confuse users who are not familiar with the Read API.
