Code Example

This C# code example reads Czech text from an image or PDF document.

// Import the IronOcr namespace
using IronOcr;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Create a new IronTesseract instance
        var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

        // Set the OCR language to Czech
        Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Czech;

        // Define the input image or PDF and perform OCR
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Czech.png"))
        {
            // Read the input and perform OCR
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

            // Extract all recognized text
            var AllText = Result.Text;

            // Output the recognized text to the console
            Console.WriteLine(AllText);
        }
    }
}
// Import the IronOcr namespace
using IronOcr;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Create a new IronTesseract instance
        var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

        // Set the OCR language to Czech
        Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Czech;

        // Define the input image or PDF and perform OCR
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Czech.png"))
        {
            // Read the input and perform OCR
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

            // Extract all recognized text
            var AllText = Result.Text;

            // Output the recognized text to the console
            Console.WriteLine(AllText);
        }
    }

  • The above code demonstrates how to configure and utilize the IronTesseract class to perform OCR on a given image or PDF.
  • Ensure the IronOCR.Languages.Czech package is installed in your environment for the code to execute correctly.
  • The OcrInput class is used to load the image from the specified path, and Ocr.Read() performs the OCR operation.
  • Result.Text will contain the OCR output which in this case is printed to the console.
