# Raw Text (Full OCR)

## Overview

By activating this feature, the full text content of the document will be extracted using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology.

The resulting content will be included in the API response.

In the response, each page will have its text content filled.

## Use Cases

Having access to the raw text can be particularly useful when:

* needing to save a copy of the text for your records
* perform searches within the text

## Activate Raw Text

{% hint style="success" icon="money-check-dollar-pen" %}
This feature is available on all plans.
{% endhint %}

### Activate Raw Text via API Calls

If you need finer-grained control over when the feature is used, you can activate or deactivate it when making API calls.

This allows dynamically setting the activation state using your internal business or domain logic.

Check the [Client Configuration](/integrations/client-libraries-sdk/configure-the-client.md#optional-features-configuration) section if using our [Client Libraries / SDKs](/integrations/client-libraries-sdk.md).

## Use the Raw Text Result

We highly recommend using our [Client Libraries / SDKs](/integrations/client-libraries-sdk.md), as they include various functions for ease of processing.

Specifically for handling the raw text, take a look at the [Response Processing](/integrations/client-libraries-sdk/process-the-response.md#raw-text) section.

Otherwise, take a look at the [Manual Integration](/integrations/api-reference.md#get-v2-inferences-inference_id) section.
