Leadtools.Forms.Ocr Namespace > IOcrPage Interface : GetRotateAngle Method



The GetRotateAngle Method is available as an add-on to the LEADTOOLS Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

Gets the angle of the rotation of this IOcrPage.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetRotateAngle() As Integer
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As IOcrPage
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.GetRotateAngle()
C# 
int GetRotateAngle()
C++/CLI 
int GetRotateAngle(); 

Return Value

The angle of the rotation of this image in degrees.

Example

For an example, refer to AutoPreprocess.

Remarks

This method will return one of the following values:

Value Description
0 The image is not rotated.
90 The image is rotated 90 degrees.
180 The image is rotated 180 degrees (upside down).
270 The image is rotated 270 degrees.

Use AutoPreprocess with OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Rotate to automatically rotate the page image prior to calling IOcrPage.Recognize or RecognizeText. This could enhance the quality of the image before starting its recognition.

If the image is rotated, GetRotateAngle will return the angle required to fix the orientation of the page, if you call AutoPreprocess on the page, all subsequent calls to GetRotateAngle will return 0 since the image is no rotated. Hence, you must use GetRotateAngle before calling AutoPreprocess.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7
