Hi, Page segmentation mode defines how your text should be treated by Tesseract. For example, if your image contains a single character or a block of text, you want to specify the corresponding psm so that you can improve accuracy.
You can find more information about the available psm modes by entering the following command in your terminal: tesseract --help-psm or by checking this wiki https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/wiki/ImproveQuality#page-segmentation-method. I hope this can help you.
