How to use OCR Language Packs in IronOCR

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to extract text from multilingual PDF documents using IronOCR in C#. The video walks through setting up IronOCR and installing additional language packs—specifically English and Japanese. You'll see how to configure the OCR engine to support multiple languages and apply it to a sample PDF that includes both English and Japanese text. The tutorial demonstrates how to initialize the OCR engine, define the input file, and extract text using the Read method. The extracted content is then saved to a .txt file, with error handling in place for failed operations. This is a great example of how IronOCR supports global document processing by recognizing multiple languages in a single scan. Whether you're processing multilingual forms, international documents, or PDFs from global sources, this guide shows how easy it is to get accurate, language-aware OCR results in C#.
