This C# code example reads Amharic text from an image or PDF document.
// Install the necessary Amharic language package for IronOCR
// PM> Install-Package IronOcr.Languages.Amharic
using IronOcr;
var Ocr = new IronTesseract(); // Create a new instance of the IronTesseract OCR engine
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Amharic; // Set the OCR language to Amharic
// Read text from an image
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Amharic.png")) // Specify the path to the image file
{
var Result = Ocr.Read(Input); // Perform OCR on the input image
var AllText = Result.Text; // Get the extracted text from the OCR result
// The variable 'AllText' contains the text in Amharic read from the image
}Imports IronOcr
