Tesseract is super picky though often failing pixel-perfect screenshots...

So, maybe it can be tuned for your usecase but with that kind of investment €3.5 for 1000 pages is a bargain...

It‘s also cheaper than the murican ones from Google, Amazon, …. And tesseract was an example. Heck you can go xberg and use paddleocr. Most often layout is less of a problem for ocr. Most often you need high accuracy, which tools like these are often worse in the 95 percentile.
