OCR Tesseract Image DPI

The OcrInput class will automatically resolve low-resolution images for IronTesseract.

Although Tesseract generally requires a 300 DPI input, IronTesseract has been tuned to maintain high accuracy on lower-resolution scans. This can improve OCR speed.

Too high a DPI is slow. Too low a DPI causes inaccuracies. If in doubt, do nothing, and Iron Tesseract will preconfigure everything for you.
