Hi, I'm experiencing a strage behavior with API and CLI.

I'm trying to use deepseek-ocr to extract text from an image.
-CLI: ollama run deepseek-ocr "/Users/sasoftware/Downloads/image.png\nExtract text in markdown."
works fine and extract text without any problem.

-API: I'm calling localhost:11434/api/generate with this body:

{
    "model": "deepseek-ocr:latest",
    "prompt": "Read this receipt image and extract all the texts in MARKDOWN.",
    "stream": false,
    "images": [
        "iVBORw0....ElFTkSuQmCC"
    ]
}

but I'm receiving this response:

{
    "model": "deepseek-ocr:latest",
    "created_at": "2026-04-10T10:08:43.783512Z",
    "response": "）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n）。\n\n",
    "done": false
}

How can it be possible? Do I have to specify other params inside the request body?
I've tried with many more images but only this one has this type of problem. Any suggestion would be really useful.
