On: How to do OCR on a Mac using the CLI or just Pytho...

I'll throw my solution into the mix: https://skaplanofficial.github.io/PyXA/tutorial/images.html#...

PyXA uses the Vision framework to extract text from one or more images at a time. It's only a small part of the package, so it might be overkill for a one-off operation, but it's an option.

fyi you're using the old and less accurate api, VNRecognizeTextRequest

ImageAnalyzer is newer and much better

I bet this shortcut from OP is also using the older API under the hood

[HelloImSteven → wahnfrieden]

ImageAnalyzer is Swift-only and has no corresponding Objective-C method, so it's not available in PyObJC. I can look into bridging it at some point.

This would probably be pretty easy to do with swift and python processes running side by side with grpc.
