Slovak Language Pack [slovenčina]:
Installation
The first thing we have to do is install our Slovak OCR package into your .NET project.
Code Example
This C# code example reads Slovak text from an image or PDF document.
// Ensure you have installed the Slovak language pack for IronOCR
// PM> Install-Package IronOcr.Languages.Slovak
using IronOcr;
class SlovakOcrExample
{
static void Main()
{
// Create an instance of IronTesseract for OCR processing
var Ocr = new IronTesseract();
// Set the language to Slovak
Ocr.Language = OcrLanguage.Slovak;
// Using an OcrInput to specify the source of the image or PDF
using (var Input = new OcrInput(@"images\Slovak.png"))
{
// Perform OCR to read the text from the input image or PDF
var Result = Ocr.Read(Input);
// Extract all recognized text
var AllText = Result.Text;
// Output the extracted text to the console
Console.WriteLine(AllText);
}
}

Shared Sub Main()
' Create an instance of IronTesseract for OCR processing
Dim Ocr As New IronTesseract()

End Using
End Sub
End ClassThis example demonstrates how to read Slovak text using the IronOCR library. It starts with creating an instance of IronTesseract, specifies Slovak as the language for OCR, and processes the input image located at images/Slovak.png. Finally, it extracts and outputs the text recognized from the image.
