Receiving a mix of both raster and searchable PDFs can be a pain, especially for those who get these files from clients daily. The LEADTOOLS OCR and PDF SDK makes it easy for developers to check if a file needs to have OCR ran or not.

This morning I was given a folder of more than 100 screenshots of our various demos. I needed these to update our website. Unfortunately, most of them were too large for the page and needed to be resized. I quickly created a .NET Core console app to fix the image sizes for me. I was able to write the code, resize the images, and then blog about it before 10:00am. Code is below. Enjoy!

Very few individuals like their personal information shared and I guarantee no one likes private information from documents being shared either. Images of financial documents, such as checks, are sent across large companies every day. In a world where anything can be uploaded to the internet and stolen in seconds, you can never be too careful with protecting personal information.

Within the past half year, LEADTOOLS has had some major releases with the SDK and the Cloud Services. Today, we are going to talk about both the Xamarin Camera Control as well as the Merge Web API. We will be using the Xamarin Camera Control to take multiple pictures and then send those image to LEAD's cloud services. Once those have been uploaded, the Merge Web API will merge all those images into one single file.

Last month we introduced LEADTOOLS Cloud Services, a brand-new product offering from LEADTOOLS, the World Leader in Imaging SDKs. We highlighted its OCR, Barcode, and Document Conversion features, and how to use the services in a Node.js application. In this post, we’ll explore a more applied scenario.
