Hi, Thanks for sharing your requirement here at freelancer and I will be more than happy to help you. Let me share with you my expertise with OCR. I am an expert in Image Recognition & Machine Learning for more than decade now. I have full knowledge and experience in several kinds of OCR, such as Plate Number Recognition, Handwritten Recognition, Sign Recognition and so on. In my opinion, the best way to success of your project is to develop OCR program yourself because there are unrecognizable characters in your pdf. I am sure that Deep learning OCR can achieve higher performance than FineReader. I can start your project immediately and let me know if you would like to discuss anything further with me. Thanks. Fang.
