This video showcases how you can use the LEADTOOLS .NET Core libraries to build a cross-platform OCR Application. This sample application loads a sample image such as a TIF, performs OCR on the text, and outputs the recognized words into a PDF document.

Recently, we released a huge update to Version 19 which included a new Document Composer. We already wrote about its amazing features, simple interface, and seamless integration with the Document Viewer, and now you can also watch this video to see how easy it is to compose a virtual document on the fly from any number of pages in any order and from multiple source documents.

LEADTOOLS Multimedia SDK has made a name for itself by offering high level controls that take the complexity out of developing DirectShow and Media Foundation applications. Most core operations such as conversion, capture and playback can be done with only a few lines of code. In addition to the high level features, LEADTOOLS is flexible enough for any advanced application with more difficult scenarios and still offers as much or as little control as desired over the graphs and topologies under the hood.

The ConvertCtrl is a perfect example of this. By setting a source file, destination file and format you can make an audio/video conversion application in minutes. Developers who wish to dive deeper can supply their own media samples and process the conversion frame by frame.

We hope you are enjoying all the buzz surrounding our 25 projects in 25 days. This afternoon we're making a quick interruption to announce a new Media Streaming Server video published to our YouTube channel.

This video provides an overview of the Media Streaming Server and its ability to use a single source file and stream it to multiple devices and formats such as Flash, HTML5, Apple HTTP Live Streaming, RTSP, MPEG-DASH, Adobe HDS and Microsoft Smooth Streaming.

As part of the LEAD Technologies 25th anniversary, we are creating 25 projects in 25 days to celebrate LEAD's depth of features and ease of use. Today's project comes from Hadi.
