I was very disappointed in my results:<p><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=17-AYllk3J2SRcIzHKpfy8gUZYPpaN7hnezXhiCwcDYo" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=17-AYllk3J2SRcIzHKpf...</a><p>Does this image have a resolution or a font problem?

I don't know what they're using, but I hope it gets better soon. Particularly with Asian character sets it's pretty hit or miss. Then put the result through Google Translate and... wow (not in a good way). Love the concept, just hope there's a 2.0 in the near future!

Any idea if google is uing using <a href="http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/</a> to do this?<p>I was under the impression that was what they used for the book scanning project.

I wonder how long it'll take them to implement automatic language detection like what we see in Google Translate.

Is there an API for this?
