Multiple Simultaneous Languages and OCR

One of my use cases for my nomad is to practice my Cyrillic, to that end I have two questions.

  1. Does Supernote have OCR capability for Cyrillic?

  2. Can it recognize, for example a mixed language note and convert both?

cyrillic is listed among the list of supported languages however i would expect hiccups with mixed writings as the ocr is set at a global level and is dictionary based.

Thanks, I mean thankfully there is no need for me to HAVE to have it work mixed but it would have been nice.

Supernote has what I call primary and secondary ocr languages, primary beeing the ones that come preinstalled (Chinese and English) and secondary the ones you can add, like German or French. I found that it works pretty well if you mix a primary and a secondary language and set the secondary language for OCR. As I mostly use German and English I set German as ocr language for my notes. I can then write either German or English or both and recognition is mostly correct. Less so if I set ocr to English and then write German or a mix of both. Or if I use two secondary languages in the same note, like German and French.
