## Features

PaddleOCR support a variety of cutting-edge algorithms related to OCR, and developed industrial featured models/solution [PP-OCR](./doc/doc_en/ppocr_introduction_en.md) and [PP-Structure](./ppstructure/README.md) on this basis, and get through the whole process of data production, model training, compression, inference and deployment.

## Guideline for New Language Requests

If you want to request a new language support, a PR with 1 following files are needed：

1. In folder [ppocr/utils/dict](./ppocr/utils/dict),
it is necessary to submit the dict text to this path and name it with `{language}_dict.txt` that contains a list of all characters. Please see the format example from other files in that folder.

If your language has unique elements, please tell me in advance within any way, such as useful links, wikipedia and so on.

More details, please refer to [Multilingual OCR Development Plan](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleOCR/issues/1048).
