Description
### Bug
I am trying to extract data from the table from research article and the results are not accurate. I have similar observations with other tables also. Often some values are missing and often some special characters like '=' and '~' are added. Sometimes, number '0' is misinterpreted as letter 'o'.
I tried with tesseractocr also, to rule out the role of EasyOCR engine, but things got worse with tesseract ocr.
Is it known bug in Docling, while extracting the values from tables?
