Hi!
I would like to test the capabilities of the IRIS OCR for image-based Chinese PDFs.
However, the result is not as expected (see original file):
SDLXLIFF preview:
Original PDF in Chinese (see attached):
Thanks for helping!
Best regards,
Manuel
Hi Manuel,
The behavior, as is, is intended, although it may not look like it at first.
Here is why:
The preview generated is generated from the source language of the first language pair listed in
File > Options > Language Pairs
In your case the source language seems to have been English or some other language using the western alphabet, while the document was Chinese and with the wrong source language the characters were not recognized correctly.
If on the other hand you check the preview during project creation, or in the project settings afterward, you try the preview, there usually is only a single language pair present, and the correct one will be used automatically.
Kind regards
