IronOCR - The C# OCR Library

IronOcr is a C# library for reading texts and barcode from images and PDFs.

👁 IronOCR NuGet Trial Banner Image

IronOCR is a comprehensive C# library for developers to add advanced text and barcode recognition to .NET applications. With its precise engine, you can extract text from images and PDFs, scan dozens of barcode formats, export searchable text, and embed robust document scanning capabilities directly into your projects.

2. Perform Basic OCR

using IronOcr;

var ocr = new IronTesseract();

using (var ocrInput = new OcrInput())
{
 ocrInput.LoadImage("image.png");
 ocrInput.LoadPdf("document.pdf");
 
 // Optionally Apply Filters if needed:
 // ocrInput.Deskew(); // use only if image not straight
 // ocrInput.DeNoise(); // use only if image contains digital noise
 
 var ocrResult = ocr.Read(ocrInput);
 Console.WriteLine(ocrResult.Text);
}
