Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Codecs; 
using Leadtools.Ocr; 
 
public void OcrLanguageManagerExample()

   // 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); 
 
      // Show languages supported by this engine 
      string[] supportedLanguages = ocrEngine.LanguageManager.GetSupportedLanguages(); 
 
      Console.WriteLine("Supported languages:"); 
      foreach (string supportedLanguage in supportedLanguages) 
      {

         CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo(supportedLanguage); 
         Console.WriteLine("  {0} ({1})", supportedLanguage, ci.EnglishName); 
      }

         // will always return an array of 1, make a note of this 
         if (!ocrEngine.LanguageManager.SupportsEnablingMultipleLanguages) 
            Console.WriteLine("This engine supports enabling only one language at a time, so only the first language we enabled will be used");
