Quick tips<\/h2>\n\n- Crop tight. Remove UI bars, side panels, and borders.<\/li>\n
- Boost contrast. Black text on white background still wins.<\/li>\n
- Prefer printed text over handwriting when accuracy matters.<\/li>\n
- For receipts, post-process numbers. OCR can split digits across lines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
