public LeadRect Bounds { get; set; }
A LeadRect that contains the coordinates of the rectangle exactly containing the character.
To get the recognized characters of a page, call IOcrPage.GetRecognizedCharacters after IOcrPage.Recognize.
To update the recognized characters of a page, call IOcrPage.GetRecognizedCharacters before calling IOcrDocument.Save, IOcrDocument.SaveXml.
