IronOCR is an advanced, production-ready .NET library designed for C# and VB.NET developers to extract text from images, screenshots, PDFs, and scanned documents. Built on an optimized version of the Tesseract engine, it requires no external setup or pre-installed executables, working completely out of the box. Step 1: Install IronOCR via NuGet

To start, you need to add the package to your .NET project. Open the Package Manager Console or use the NuGet UI to install: PM> Install-Package IronOcr Use code with caution. Step 2: Implement Basic Text Extraction

The core workflow uses three main classes: IronTesseract (the engine), OcrInput (the image container), and OcrResult (the text data wrapper).

using System; using IronOcr; class Program { static void Main() { // 1. Initialize the OCR Engine var ocr = new IronTesseract(); // 2. Load the input image (Supports PNG, JPG, TIFF, BMP, etc.) using var input = new OcrInput(); input.LoadImage(“sample-document.png”); // 3. Execute text extraction OcrResult result = ocr.Read(input); // 4. Output the results Console.WriteLine(“Extracted Text:”); Console.WriteLine(result.Text); Console.WriteLine($“Confidence Score: {result.Confidence}%”); } } Use code with caution.
