L_HDOC2 hDoc; |
handle to the OCR document. |
L_INT nPageIndex; |
page index |
L_INT * pnRotate; |
pointer to a variable |
Determines the angle by which the specified page needs to be oriented.
Parameter |
Description |
hDoc |
Handle to the OCR document. |
nPageIndex |
Index of the page for which to get the orientation angle. This index is zero-based. |
pnRotate |
Pointer to a variable to be updated with the orientation angle, in degrees. Possible values are: +90, +180, and +270. The rotation is clockwise. |
SUCCESS |
The function was successful. |
< 1 |
An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes. |
The purpose of orientation is to make the page more readable during recognition by making sure the top of the page is positioned properly. That is, a page that is oriented correctly like this:
is much more readable than the same page oriented like this:
Please note that this function just provides the angle of orientation that is needed. It does not actually orient the page. To orient the page, call the L_Doc2AutoOrientPage function.
If the specified page does not need to be oriented the pnRotate parameter is updated with 0.
To automatically orient a page, call the L_Doc2AutoOrientPage function.
