GetDeskewAngle Method

Summary
Gets the angle of the skew of this IOcrPage.
Syntax
C#
Objective-C
C++/CLI
Java
Python
public int GetDeskewAngle() 
- (NSInteger)deskewAngle:(NSError **)error NS_SWIFT_NOTHROW; 
public int getDeskewAngle() 
int GetDeskewAngle();  
def GetDeskewAngle(self): 

Return Value

The angle of the skew of this image expressed in tenth of degrees.

Remarks

If the page is not skewed, this method will return 0

Use AutoPreprocess with OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Deskew to automatically deskew the page image prior to calling Recognize. This could enhance the quality of the image before starting its recognition.

If the image is skewed, GetDeskewAngle will return the angle needed to deskew the image, if you call AutoPreprocess on the page, all subsequent calls to GetDeskewAngle will return 0 since the image is no longer skewed. Hence, you must use GetDeskewAngle before calling AutoPreprocess.

Use GetPreprocessValues to obtain the accumulative pre-processing values applied to this IOcrPage.

using Leadtools.Ocr; 
using Leadtools.Forms.Common; 
using Leadtools.Document.Writer;

   // Create an instance of the engine 
   using (IOcrEngine ocrEngine = OcrEngineManager.CreateEngine(OcrEngineType.LEAD)) 
   { 
      // Start the engine using default parameters 
      ocrEngine.Startup(null, null, null, LEAD_VARS.OcrLEADRuntimeDir); 
 
      // Create an OCR document 
      using (IOcrDocument ocrDocument = ocrEngine.DocumentManager.CreateDocument())

         // Add this image to the document 
         IOcrPage ocrPage = ocrDocument.Pages.AddPage(tifFileName, null); 
 
         // Auto-preprocess it 
         ocrPage.AutoPreprocess(OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Deskew, null); 
         ocrPage.AutoPreprocess(OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Invert, null); 
         ocrPage.AutoPreprocess(OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Rotate, null); 
 
         // Recognize it and save it as PDF 
         ocrPage.Recognize(null); 
         ocrDocument.Save(pdfFileName, DocumentFormat.Pdf, null); 
      } 
 
      // Shutdown the engine 
      // Note: calling Dispose will also automatically shutdown the engine if it has been started 
      ocrEngine.Shutdown(); 
   }
