Hungarian Language Pack [magyar]

Installation

The first thing we have to do is install our Hungarian OCR package to your .NET project.

PM > Install-Package IronOcr.Languages.Hungarian

Code Example

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

// First, ensure you have installed the Hungarian OCR language pack
// via NuGet: Install-Package IronOcr.Languages.Hungarian

using IronOcr;

var Ocr = new IronTesseract();

// Set the OCR language to Hungarian.
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Hungarian;

// Load the image file containing Hungarian text
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Hungarian.png"))
{
    // Perform OCR on the input image
    var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);
    
    // Retrieve and store the recognized text
    var AllText = Result.Text;

    // Output the recognized text to the console (for debugging purposes)
    Console.WriteLine(AllText);
}

This code snippet demonstrates how to set up an OCR reader using the IronOCR library to recognize Hungarian text from a specified image file. The text extracted is stored in the AllText variable, and can be used as needed within your application. The example also includes an optional console output to verify the OCR results during testing.
