Converts a photo of a document or receipt in common formats such as JPEG, PNG into words/text with location information and other metdata via Optical Character Recognition. This API is intended to be run on photographs of documents. If you want to OCR scanned documents (e.g. taken with a scanner), be sure to use the image/toText API instead, as it is designed for that use case. Note: for free tier API keys, it is required to add a credit card to your account for security reasons, to use the free tier key with this API.
