Code Example

The following C# code example demonstrates how to read Galician text from an image or PDF document.

// Include the IronOcr library
using IronOcr;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Instantiate the IronTesseract OCR engine
        var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

        // Specify the language for OCR as Galician
        Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Galician;

        // Define the input source, here it is an image file
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Galician.png"))
        {
            // Perform the OCR process on the input image
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

            // Retrieve the recognized text from the OCR result
            var AllText = Result.Text;

            // Output the extracted text to the console
            Console.WriteLine(AllText);
        }
    }
}
// Include the IronOcr library
using IronOcr;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Instantiate the IronTesseract OCR engine
        var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

        // Specify the language for OCR as Galician
        Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Galician;

        // Define the input source, here it is an image file
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Galician.png"))
        {
            // Perform the OCR process on the input image
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

            // Retrieve the recognized text from the OCR result
            var AllText = Result.Text;

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

In the above code:

  • We are using the IronTesseract class to create an OCR engine object.
  • We set the OCR language to Galician which ensures the OCR engine accurately processes Galician text.
  • We then read the image file located at "images\Galician.png" and get the recognized text.
  • Finally, we print the recognized text to the console.
