I'm honestly not sure, it has been a long time since I touched this project and Nicomsoft wasn't that great. The implementation for it used by this project bypassed the free version. I can't remember a lot about it beyond that.

I would recommend using Google Vision (which I think is now called Vision AI or something) as it's very strong and always gave me the best output.

The second best for me was the in-built Windows 10 OCR engine which likely has the language you want. It is also fairly strong.

I imagine there are better OCR implementation now that AI has come a long way.

thanks. I need offline version of OCR - application works with no internet connections. Think what I will try to work with Win10 OCR.
