Language support
Document AI API's text recognition feature (OCR) is able to detect text from a wide variety of languages and can detect multiple languages within a single document.
Languages detected by the Document AI API are returned in the Document object
in the detectedLanguages
field as a BCP-47 identifier.
For more information about OCR Language support, refer to the Cloud Vision OCR Language Support documentation.
