Correct answer: B
Explanation
The Azure Computer Vision Read API is the optimal choice for extracting handwritten text from scanned documents. It is specifically designed for optical character recognition (OCR) tasks, including handwriting in various languages. Although other Azure services like Form Recognizer and Text Analytics have their use cases, they are not suitable for extracting handwritten text accurately in this scenario.
- A. Incorrect.
Azure Form Recognizer with the Layout API is designed for extracting structured data such as tables and forms but is not specifically optimized for handwritten text extraction.
- B. Correct.
Azure Computer Vision Read API is specifically designed to extract both printed and handwritten text from images or documents, making it the correct choice for this scenario.
- C. Incorrect.
Azure Text Analytics is used for analyzing text, such as sentiment analysis and key phrase extraction, but it does not support extracting handwritten text from documents.
