AWS Textract not detecting Trademark or superscripts

Question

Hi,
I am using textract to extract text from Pdf file. I have an issue that most of the time Textract is not showing Trademark symbol in correct form. 
Some of the time it shows "R" in place of "®" and sometimes not showing anything.
Please let me know how to handle this. As its important to capture this in text

Thanks

Hi Wagas,

To improve the detection of the trademark symbol (®) with AWS Textract, try the following:

1. Increase PDF Resolution: Ensure your PDF is high resolution to enhance Textract's accuracy.
2. Convert PDF to Image: Convert the PDF to a high-resolution image (e.g., PNG) before processing it with Textract.

These steps can help improve symbol detection.

If possible, please share the document so we can further investigate and provide more specific guidance.
