cognitive services OCR cannot detect odometer style numbers

Question

Hi - running this API: https://---cognitiveservices.azure.com/vision/v3.0/ocr with the following image provides no output related to the numbers? Is this by design?

{  
    "language": "en",  
    "textAngle": 0.0,  
    "orientation": "Up",  
    "regions": [  
        {  
            "boundingBox": "1495,1560,590,154",  
            "lines": [  
                {  
                    "boundingBox": "1495,1560,590,154",  
                    "words": [  
                        {  
                            "boundingBox": "1495,1560,590,154",  
                            "text": "LITRES"  
                        }  
                    ]  
                }  
            ]  
        }  
    ]  
}

@Garry You can use the read API to get a response but in this case the text or numbers are not aligned correctly so not all the numbers will show up. For a LCD type of display this might work accurately.

I did not see any direct support documentation for images of a manual odometer where are numbers might not be aligned. Will look out for any updates on this support though.
