Sikulix uses Tesseract for Optical Character Recognition.
If Tesseract is not able to identify a certain category of written text, then this is not Sikulix's fault

Remark: Outlined text and text on a rasterized background are known to be problematic for all OCR programs. see e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38000761/ocr-how-to-get-text-from-outlined-words

Can you help with this problem?
