When the built-in model cannot meet the needs, you need to use your own trained model. First, refer to export doc to convert your det and rec model to inference model, and then use it as follows
from paddleocr import PaddleOCR,draw_ocr
# The path of detection and recognition model must contain model and params files
ocr = PaddleOCR(det_model_dir='{your_det_model_dir}', rec_model_dir='{your_rec_model_dir}', rec_char_dict_path='{your_rec_char_dict_path}', cls_model_dir='{your_cls_model_dir}', use_angle_cls=True)
img_path = 'PaddleOCR/doc/imgs_en/img_12.jpg'
result = ocr.ocr(img_path, cls=True)
for idx in range(len(result)):
res = result[idx]
for line in res:
print(line)
# draw result

result = result[0]
image = Image.open(img_path).convert('RGB')
boxes = [line[0] for line in result]
txts = [line[1][0] for line in result]
scores = [line[1][1] for line in result]
im_show = draw_ocr(image, boxes, txts, scores, font_path='/path/to/PaddleOCR/doc/fonts/simfang.ttf')
