Explanation
Azure OCR is a powerful tool for extracting text from images and documents. It supports printed and handwritten text recognition, works with multi-language documents, and provides bounding box coordinates to locate text. However, tasks like text translation and text-to-speech require separate Azure services.
- A. Correct.
Correct. Azure OCR can extract both printed and handwritten text from images and PDFs, a key feature for digitizing documents.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Translation of text is not a feature of OCR itself; it requires a separate translation service, such as Azure Translator.
- C. Correct.
Correct. Azure OCR supports text recognition in multiple languages within the same document, making it versatile for multi-language documents.
- D. Correct.
Correct. OCR provides bounding box coordinates for the detected text, which helps identify the exact location of text in the original document.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Generating synthetic voice output requires text-to-speech services, which are separate from OCR functionality.
