Thanks for your interest in our project!
Regarding the Scribo module, its main task is to detect and extract
structure and data in documents.
We perform image processing treatments on images and try to OCR detected
text regions. For OCR, we use the open source project Tesseract which
supports many languages, including Spanish.
In Scribo, functions calling the OCR let the user choose which language
to use for recognition. For Spanish you shall have to use "spa" as argument.
For the moment, we do not use any other linguistics data in OCR such as
dictionnary or semantic post-processing to improve results.
Let us know if you need more information.
Best regards,
