That's a description of Jbig2, not a description of OCR.

Jbig2 is an OCR algorithm that doesn't assume the document comes from a pre-existing alphabet.

You asked what the difference was, and I said the difference. Was it unclear that to fit the phrasing of your question, we add "OCR doesn't"? I would not personally call Jbig2 OCR.
