How well do you think your OCR solution would work on magazines? I found OCR very hit and miss with magazines, especially ones with text into background pictures etc.

I'm not sure but in theory I would expect the layouts to be less variable with magazines due to the smaller page space. And vLLMs seem to be good at odd text inside images
