This page provides information on the supported languages for UiPath® OCR engines: * UiPath Document OCR: default UiPath OCR, which receives regular updates and improvements. You can use it on either GPU or CPU, delivering the same level of accuracy in both cases. * UiPath Document OCR_CPU: specially optimized to run on CPU. * UiPath Extended Languages OCR: capable of processing documents in over 200 languages, especially in Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, major Indian languages, and languages that use the Cyrilic or Greek alphabets. :::tip Choosing the right OCR engine for your documents is simple. By default, use the **UiPath Document OCR**, which benefits from regular updates and improvements. If this doesn't support your document language or it's not performing as expected, switch to one of our other OCR engines, like the **UiPath Extended Languages OCR**. ::: ## Printed text | Language
