OCR doesn't return any text

Aspose.OCR Product Family
1

I’m using Visual Studio 2017. When trying to extract the text from any of the sample images, OCR returns nothing.

Dim L As New Aspose.OCR.License
L.SetLicense(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & “\Aspose.Total.lic”)

    Dim OCREng As New Aspose.OCR.OcrEngine

    'OCR.Image = Aspose.OCR.ImageStream.FromStream(mem, Aspose.OCR.ImageStreamFormat.Bmp)
    OCREng.Image = Aspose.OCR.ImageStream.FromFile("C:\Users\Peter.ZABY\Desktop\Aspose.OCR-for-.NET-master\Examples\Data\OCR\Sample.bmp")

    If OCREng.Process() Then

        Dim ret As String = OCREng.Text.ToString
    End If

Any ideas?

@PZaby,

We have tried to reproduce the issue at our end. We have found no issue, the code executed successfully. Sample code snippet and input image is attached for your reference.

CODE:

            var sb = new StringBuilder();
            OcrEngine ocrEngine = new OcrEngine();
            ocrEngine.Image = ImageStream.FromFile(@"E:\Ctrash\Input\Sample.bmp");
            //ocrEngine.Config.DoSpellingCorrection = true;
            //ocrEngine.Config.ProcessColoredBackground = true;

            if (ocrEngine.Process())
            {
                sb.Append(ocrEngine.Text);
                sb.Append(Environment.NewLine);
            }
            Console.WriteLine(sb);

OUTPUT:

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
ABCDEFGH lJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
12, 3-4 5; 6.7:8(9)?
