Pre-processing cow tag images for OCR with EasyOCR

I'm trying to use Optical Character Recognition to extract text from images of cattle tags like this one. The tags are yellow with black text, and they may be slightly distorted or rotated.

I'm wondering what the best way to pre-process these images for EasyOCR (or another OCR tool) would be.

Here are some specific questions I have:

What are some good pre-processing techniques for improving the accuracy of OCR on these types of images? Which OCR engine would be best suited for this task? Would it be beneficial to train a custom OCR model on a dataset of cattle tag images? I've done some initial research on image pre-processing for OCR, but I'm not sure which techniques would be most effective for this specific case.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I tried using EasyOCR and got 1 or 2 images correctly out of 18 but that is not enough.
