Code Example

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

// Import the IronOcr namespace
using IronOcr;

// Create a new instance of the IronTesseract class, which is responsible for performing OCR
var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

// Specify the language to be Yiddish
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Yiddish;

// Using block ensures that resources are disposed of correctly
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Yiddish.png")) // Specify the path to your image file
{
    // Perform the OCR operation on the input image
    var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

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

    // Optionally, you can output or process the `AllText` variable as needed
}
// Import the IronOcr namespace
using IronOcr;

// Create a new instance of the IronTesseract class, which is responsible for performing OCR
var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

// Specify the language to be Yiddish
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Yiddish;

// Using block ensures that resources are disposed of correctly
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Yiddish.png")) // Specify the path to your image file
{
    // Perform the OCR operation on the input image
    var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

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

    // Optionally, you can output or process the `AllText` variable as needed
}
