Hello everyone,

I'm experiencing an issue with Tesseract.js on my project deployed on Vercel. Until recently, everything was working fine, but now, for no apparent reason, Tesseract can no longer find the required WASM file (tesseract-core-simd.wasm).

Context

• Version used: Tesseract.js v6
• Environment: Nuxt 3 project hosted on Vercel
• History: My code was previously working without any issues, and OCR processing was running fine.

Error encountered

When calling createWorker() to run OCR analysis, I now get the following error:

Questions

• Has anyone else encountered this issue on Vercel?
• Has there been a recent change that prevents Tesseract.js from accessing the WASM file?
• Is there any specific configuration needed in vercel.json or elsewhere to ensure the file is accessible?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards,
