ChatGPT can't extract data from a scanned table. What's the limitation?

Hi all,

I scanned a table and asked ChatGPT to extract the data and format it into an Excel spreadsheet. I got this error: “No text could be extracted from this file.”

I tried the same file with a competing tool. It couldn’t export directly to Excel, but it did manage to extract the data in table form. So I have the table, just not in an Excel file.

Does anyone know why ChatGPT couldn’t extract the text at all? Is this a limitation with scanned images or OCR handling?
