Prepare the source and define the result
Crop to the table while keeping labels and units. Decide whether the first row is a header and whether regions belong on separate sheets.
Set acceptance criteria before processing: expected pages or records, languages, critical fields and destination format.
Use a reviewable OCR workflow
Infer rows and columns from positioned words, preview the grid and correct obvious splits and joins. Preserve a source reference for each image.
Keep recognition evidence beside the source. Confidence prioritizes review but does not guarantee a word or number.
Verify before using the output
Compare row and column counts, totals, dates and identifiers. Ensure numeric cells work in formulas and inspect leading zeros.
Keep the original until the reviewed derivative is accepted. Valid structure does not prove semantic accuracy.
- Merged cells can produce ambiguous grids.
- Receipts often mix labels and values irregularly.
Put the workflow into practice
Arrange source documents, select the pages you need, and create one PDF locally in your browser. Review the result before choosing any optional next step.
