Danish Language Pack [dansk]

Installation

The first step is to install the Danish OCR package into your .NET project.

PM > Install-Package IronOcr.Languages.Danish

Code Example

This C# code example reads Danish text from an image or PDF document using IronOCR.

// Import the IronOcr namespace to access OCR functionalities
using IronOcr;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Initialize the IronTesseract object, which will handle OCR operations
        var Ocr = new IronTesseract();
        
        // Set the language for OCR to Danish
        Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Danish;

        // Using a 'using' statement to ensure the OcrInput object is disposed of correctly
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Danish.png"))
        {
            // Perform OCR on the input image and store the result
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);
            
            // Extract the recognized text from the result
            var AllText = Result.Text;
            
            // Output the extracted text to the console
            Console.WriteLine(AllText);
        }
    }
}

This example demonstrates setting up IronOCR to read Danish text from an image file. The IronTesseract object is configured to use the Danish language, and an image is loaded with OcrInput. Ocr.Read performs the OCR, and the recognized text is extracted and printed.
