ArXi:2603.24373v1 Announce Type: new The advent of "OCR 2.0" and large-scale vision-language models (VLMs) has set new benchmarks in text recognition. However, these unified architectures often come with significant computational demands, challenges in precise text localization within complex layouts, and a propensity for textual hallucinations. Revisiting the prevailing notion that model scale is the sole path to high accuracy, this paper
