OCR with Barcode & QR Reading
The Iron Tesseract OcrResult object can read barcodes and QR Codes during OCR if you set Ocr.Configuration.ReadBarCodes = true;.
This is just one of Iron Software's valuable additions to the vanilla/free Tesseract functionality.
How to do OCR on your QR Code
- Install the C# library to perform OCR with QR Code
- Instantiate an
IronTesseractobject and set theReadBarCodesfield to true. - Import the targeted image or PDF containing the QR Code.
- Perform OCR on the image or PDF using the
Readmethod. - View all QR Code values in the
Barcodesproperty.
This process effectively allows you to extract and utilize information encoded in QR Codes using the IronOcr library in a C# application.
