Public propertyOCRAutoModeMinExistingTextLength
Applies to OCRMode.Auto only. Sets the minimal total length of normal text objects on the current page to decide whether to perform OCR or not. If the length of the text is less than this value then extractor will use OCR for this page. Otherwise it extracts the existing normal text objects only.
Public propertyOCRBlackList
A set of characters not allowed to be recognized from scanned document. The resulting text will only contain characters that are not in this list. This helps improve uncertain recognition.
Public propertyOCRCorrections
A set of corrections automatically applied to recognized text to fix repeating recognition errors.
Public propertyOCRDetectPageRotation
Sets whether to detect scanned page rotation. Slightly slows down the processing.
Public propertyOCRDisableAutoSegmentation
Sets whether to disable the automatic segmentation. All pages will be treated as containing sparse text (as a typical document such as an invoice).
Public propertyOCRImagePreprocessingFilters
A set of corrections automatically applied to recognized text to fix repeating recognition errors.
