In this tutorial, we explore how to use Tesseract OCR with Iron OCR on Windows 10 and 11. The process begins with creating a console application in Visual Studio 2022. To perform OCR in your project, you must install the Iron OCR library, which can be added via the NuGet Package Manager, NuGet Console, or the NuGet website. It is crucial to ensure the library is up-to-date.

Once set up, we move to the program CS file, where the Iron OCR library is imported. An object of Iron Tesseract is created, and the OCR input involves providing a path to the selected image. This image is chosen for its blurriness and small size to test Iron OCR's capabilities. The tutorial demonstrates utilizing the enhanced resolution function to improve image quality and the denoise function to remove image blur. If the image is rotated, the dsq function can restore its original position.

After preparing the image, the read function reads the input image and outputs the extracted text to the console. Running the project shows Iron OCR's ability to extract exact text even from blurry images with near-perfect accuracy.

The tutorial concludes by recommending Iron OCR for high-accuracy OCR tasks, emphasizing its effectiveness in handling challenging images. Support is available for any assistance required. This guide ensures users can confidently implement and benefit from OCR technology in their projects.
