Attached is a project showcasing how you can use the LEADTOOLS .NET Core libraries to build a cross-platform OCR Application. This sample application loads a sample image such as a TIF, OCR's the words, and outputs the recognized words into a PDF document.

An example video of this application can be seen from the link below:

https://www.leadtools.com/sdk/ocr?related=videos

Note that this application can be run from the Command Prompt/Terminal by using the following command below:

Quote:

dotnet "OCR Demo.dll" "C:\temp\input.tif" "C:\temp\out.pdf"

The command is for Windows platforms and assumes your input file is located within a "Temp" folder on your C drive. You would need to adjust accordingly if running this application on macOS or Linux platforms.
