When it is difficult to read text by using SikuliX only, I recommend to integrate with another tools.
For example by using "UIAutomation PowerShell Extensions", it may be able to read elements of your Windows Application. But it depends on your environment. .NET version and PowerShell version and another.

You can download "UIAutomation PowerShell Extensions" here.
https://uiautomation.codeplex.com/

Unzip the download file, you will find "UIAutomationSpy.exe" file.
Try UIAutomationSpy if it be able to get elements inside your Windows Application or not.
If UIAutomationSpy can find unique element id or name inside your Windows Application, it may be able to read elements by using PoweShell script.

By calling runScript() in SikuliX script, it is able to run PowerShell script.
In PowerShell script, read elements then output clipboard.
In SikuliX script, read clipboard.

Can you help with this problem?
