Text recognition from an image (OCR)

For this type of project, you can use the Text recognition from an image (OCR) preset.

This preset is used for interpreting information from a photo.

Take a look at the example: the labeling interface includes an image, a response field, and a checkbox for reporting on problems with an image.

Note that validation and task layout are already configured in this Template Builder sample code.
