class LatvianOCRExample
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // Create an instance of IronTesseract for OCR

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

        // Define the input image file path
        using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Latvian.png"))
        {
            // Perform OCR on the input image
            var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);

            // Extract all recognized text from the OCR result
            var AllText = Result.Text;
            
            // Output the recognized text to the console
            Console.WriteLine(AllText);
        }
    }
}

Explanation

  • IronOCR Namespace: The example begins by importing the IronOcr namespace, necessary for accessing OCR functionalities.
  • IronTesseract Instance: The IronTesseract object (Ocr) is created to handle image reading and text extraction.
  • Language Configuration: The OCR process is configured to read Latvian text by setting the Ocr.Language property.
  • OcrInput Object: An OcrInput object is created, referencing the image file to be processed.
  • Reading the Image: The Read method is called on the Ocr instance to process the image and extract text, stored in the Result variable.
  • Result Extraction: The OCR results are accessed via Result.Text and stored in AllText for further use or display.
  • Console Output: The recognized Latvian text is printed to the console, providing a visual confirmation of text extraction.
