|
| ## Data fields |
| - `filename`: name of the image file |
| - `line_id`: list of line identifiers |
| - `line_text`: text list containing the text of each line |
| - `line_bboxes`: list of bounding boxes of each line (x, y, X, Y) |
| - `word_id`: list of word identifiers |
| - `word_text`: text list containing the text of each word |
| - `word_bboxes`: list of bounding boxes of each word (x, y, X, Y) |
|
|
| Each field is sorted from top-left to bottom-right. |
