PaddleOCR-json

PaddleOCR-json is an OCR engine based on the PaddleOCR project that provides a command-line interface and tools for extracting text from images and exporting results in structured JSON format. It wraps the PaddleOCR models, which are capable of detecting and recognizing text in a wide variety of languages and layouts, into a self-contained executable that can be run locally without needing a deep learning environment configured manually. This makes it practical for developers or system integrators who want reliable OCR output in JSON while avoiding the complexity of training or managing models by hand. Projects and wrappers built around PaddleOCR-json demonstrate how it can be integrated into other applications, such as desktop OCR utilities or language-specific bindings, because the JSON output is easy to parse and consume.
