I've started using Microsoft's TROCR (another transformer OCR model) to read the cursive in my pocket journal (I have a habit of writing programs there first while I'm out and then typing them in manually, I just focus better that way.)

It's surprisingly accurate although you have to write your own program to segment the image into lines. I think with some fine tuning I could have the machine read my notebook with minimal corrections.

Have you looked into Craft or EAST for segmenting the image into lines? Those two work decently.
