# OCR Document - Extract Text from Scanned Documents and Images

Extract text from scanned documents and images using OCR via MinerU Open API. No API key required.

Show all (66 lines)


## Quick Start

```bash
# OCR a scanned PDF
mineru-open-api flash-extract scanned.pdf

# OCR an image of a document
mineru-open-api flash-extract page-photo.jpg

# OCR from URL (no download needed)
mineru-open-api flash-extract https://example.com/scanned.pdf

# Specify language for better accuracy
mineru-open-api flash-extract scanned.pdf --language en

# Save OCR result to file
mineru-open-api flash-extract scanned.pdf -o ./output/
```

## Language Rule

You MUST reply to the user in the SAME language they use. This is non-negotiable.

## Capabilities

- OCR for scanned PDFs, photographed documents, images
- Supports PDF, PNG, JPG, WebP, BMP, TIFF
- Supports both local files and URLs directly
- Language hint with `--language` (default: `ch`, use `en` for English)
- No API key, no signup, no authentication
- Max 10MB / 20 pages per document

## When to Use

- User asks to "OCR" a document or image
- User has a scanned PDF that needs text extraction
- User shares a photo of a page and wants the text
- User mentions "scan", "handwriting", or "recognize text"

## CLI Reference

Run `mineru-open-api flash-extract --help` for all available options.

## Data Privacy

- `flash-extract` uploads the document to MinerU's cloud API for processing and returns the result. No account or API key is required.
- Documents are processed in real-time and are not stored after extraction.
- For details, see https://mineru.net

## Notes

- Best results with clear, high-resolution scans
- For higher precision OCR with full layout preservation, use `mineru-open-api extract --ocr` (requires auth via `mineru-open-api auth`)
- If the CLI cannot be installed via npm/uv/go, download it from https://mineru.net/ecosystem?tab=cli
