Return Value

Some of the OCR engines supported by LEADTOOLS (for example, the OcrEngineType.Plus and OcrEngineType.Professional) support saving the recognition results using the engine native save mechanism instead of the LEADTOOLS Document Writers. Use the GetSupportedEngineFormats method to get a list of the names of the native formats and the EngineFormat property to set the format to use when saving the results.

Note that the LEADTOOLS default installation does not ship with native engine format support. You must download and install the "OCR Additional Features" setup available at http://www.leadtools.com to add this feature. To get a list of the engine native formats available but not installed for the current OCR engine, use GetAdditionalEngineFormats.

For more information on the various document formats supported by LEADTOOLS refer to Leadtools.Forms.DocumentWriters.DocumentFormat.

To get a list of all the engine native formats supported by this IOcrEngine, use GetSupportedEngineFormats.

To get the file extension for a specific engine native format, use GetEngineFormatFileExtension.

To get a friendly name for a specific engine native format, use GetEngineFormatFriendlyName.
