How to Read Multi-Frame/Page GIFs and TIFFs

using IronOcr;

// This snippet demonstrates how to use the IronTesseract library to perform
// Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on a TIFF image file.

// Create a new instance of the IronTesseract engine.
var ocrTesseract = new IronTesseract();

// Import TIFF/TIF to process the image.
// OcrInput is used to define the input file for OCR processing.
using var imageInput = new OcrInput("Potter.tiff");

// Perform OCR on the input image.
// Execute the OCR process to read text from the given image.
OcrResult ocrResult = ocrTesseract.Read(imageInput);

// The read result is now available in the ocrResult variable.
// You can use the ocrResult variable for further processing or output, like displaying the recognized text.
