Prompt Words for Different Engines

When interacting with assistants in AI IDEs, you can use the following prompt words to specify different OCR engines:

📍 Prompt Words for RapidOCR (Local Engine)

"Use local OCR engine to process this PDF"
"Recognize this file with RapidOCR"
"Local processing, no API needed"
"Quickly recognize this document"
"Process this PDF offline"
"Don't use SiliconFlow API, use local engine"

📍 Prompt Words for SiliconFlow API (Cloud Engine)

"Use SiliconFlow API to process this PDF"
"Recognize this file with large model OCR"
"High-precision recognition for this document"
"Process complex scanned documents"
"Use cloud OCR engine"
"Use AI large model for recognition"

📍 Example Conversations

Example 1: Using Local Engine

User: Help me process this scanned PDF, use local OCR engine for quick recognition
Assistant: Sure, I'll use the RapidOCR local engine for you. Please provide the PDF file path.

Example 2: Using Cloud Engine

User: This PDF contains handwritten text, need high-precision recognition, use SiliconFlow API
Assistant: Understood, I'll use the SiliconFlow API large model for you. Please provide the PDF file path and your API key (if not already configured).

Example 3: Automatic Selection

User: Help me recognize this PDF, choose the most suitable engine
Assistant: I'll default to using the RapidOCR local engine for you. If the recognition effect is not ideal, we can try using SiliconFlow API.

🔧 Technical Implementation

When the AI assistant receives these prompt words, it will:

Parse the user's intent to determine the engine to use
Call PDFOCRProcessor(engine="rapid") or PDFOCRProcessor(engine="siliconflow")
Execute OCR recognition and return the result

Clearly specify the engine : If you have specific requirements for the engine, it's best to clearly state it in the prompt
Provide context : Explaining the document type (e.g., handwritten, complex format) helps the assistant choose the appropriate engine
Test different engines : For important documents, you can try both engines and compare the results

By using these prompt words, you can flexibly control the OCR engine selection when interacting with AI IDEs to get the best recognition results

        return silicon_result
    else:
        return rapid_result

# Usage example
result = process_with_best_engine('path/to/your/document.pdf')
print(f"Recognition completed, engine used: {result['engine']}")
print(result['text'])

Supported File Formats

PDF files : .pdf
Image files : .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .bmp, .gif, .tiff, .webp

Output Format

{
    "text": "Recognized full text content",
    "page_count": number_of_pages,  # Always 1 for image files
    "engine": "rapid" | "siliconflow"  # OCR engine used
}

Use Cases

Processing scanned contracts, agreements and other documents
Extracting text from photocopied books and reports
Processing PDF files with non-copyable text
Batch processing scanned PDF documents
Recognizing text in screenshots and scanned images
Processing handwritten or printed text in images

Notes

RapidOCR Engine :
- Completely free, no network connection required
- Model files will be automatically downloaded on first use
- Recognition speed depends on CPU performance
SiliconFlow API Engine :
- Requires a valid API key
- May incur costs
- Recognition speed depends on number of pages, image size, and network conditions
Recognition accuracy may vary for complex scanned PDFs or images
It is recommended to use high-resolution scanned PDFs or images for better recognition results

Prompt Words for Different Engines

When interacting with assistants in AI IDEs, you can use the following prompt words to specify different OCR engines:

📍 Prompt Words for RapidOCR (Local Engine)

"Use local OCR engine to process this PDF"
"Recognize this file with RapidOCR"
"Local processing, no API needed"
"Quickly recognize this document"
"Process this PDF offline"
"Don't use SiliconFlow API, use local engine"

📍 Prompt Words for SiliconFlow API (Cloud Engine)

"Use SiliconFlow API to process this PDF"
"Recognize this file with large model OCR"
"High-precision recognition for this document"
"Process complex scanned documents"
"Use cloud OCR engine"
"Use AI large model for recognition"

📍 Example Conversations

Example 1: Using Local Engine

User: Help me process this scanned PDF, use local OCR engine for quick recognition
Assistant: Sure, I'll use the RapidOCR local engine for you. Please provide the PDF file path.

Example 2: Using Cloud Engine

User: This PDF contains handwritten text, need high-precision recognition, use SiliconFlow API
Assistant: Understood, I'll use the SiliconFlow API large model for you. Please provide the PDF file path and your API key (if not already configured).

Example 3: Automatic Selection

User: Help me recognize this PDF, choose the most suitable engine
Assistant: I'll default to using the RapidOCR local engine for you. If the recognition effect is not ideal, we can try using SiliconFlow API.

🔧 Technical Implementation

When the AI assistant receives these prompt words, it will:

Parse the user's intent to determine the engine to use
Call PDFOCRProcessor(engine="rapid") or PDFOCRProcessor(engine="siliconflow")
Execute OCR recognition and return the result

🎯 Best Practices

Clearly specify the engine : If you have specific requirements for the engine, it's best to clearly state it in the prompt
Provide context : Explaining the document type (e.g., handwritten, complex format) helps the assistant choose the appropriate engine
Test different engines : For important documents, you can try both engines and compare the results

By using these prompt words, you can flexibly control the OCR engine selection when interacting with AI IDEs to get the best recognition results
