Invoices are commercial documents that contain various pieces of information, including the purchased items, time, and total money. Therefore, the extraction of these key information automatically plays an important role. Although there are several methods in detection and extraction information for documents with Latin characters, methods for Korean character are limited. Therefore, in this paper, an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) model using deep learning model combined with some image preprocessing techniques is proposed to automatically extract proper information from the invoices with Korean language. The proposed OCR model is assessed in a large scale dataset of collected invoices and the results show that 87% F1-score can be achieved with negligible time processing.
