Extract may not always interpret line breaks correctly, leading to incomplete or separated words. Here are some suggestions to address this issue: Before sending the document to Textract, you may consider preprocessing the image or document to improve the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) results. Enhance the image quality, remove unnecessary elements, and ensure that the text is well-aligned.
Here's a basic example of post-processing in Python to address the issue of incomplete words due to line break
import re
def post_process_textract_result(result):
for block in result['Blocks']:
if block['BlockType'] == 'LINE':
text = block['Text']
# Replace line breaks within words with a space
text = re.sub(r'(\S)-\n(\S)', r'\1 \2', text)
block['Text'] = text
# Example usage
post_process_textract_result(textract_result)
This is just a simple example, and you may need to adapt it based on your specific use case and the structure of your documents. if the problem persists and is critical for your business, it's advisable to reach out to AWS Support. They can provide specific guidance and assistance based on your use case
