For all's convenience, please use English to fill this issue.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I often find it time-consuming to manually extract text from images when using Microsoft Photos app.

Describe the solution you'd like

I’d like QuickLook to automatically support text extraction (OCR) from opened image, enabling users to copy text directly without needing a separate OCR tool.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently, I use third-party OCR tools or Microsoft Photos and open images to extract text, but these steps are slower.

Additional context
This feature would save time for users who need to work with text images quickly.
