Leadtools.Forms.Ocr Namespace > IOcrPage Interface : GetDeskewAngle Method



The GetDeskewAngle Method is available as an add-on to the LEADTOOLS Document and Medical Imaging toolkits.

Gets the angle of the skew of this IOcrPage.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GetDeskewAngle() As Integer
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim instance As IOcrPage
Dim value As Integer
 
value = instance.GetDeskewAngle()
C# 
int GetDeskewAngle()
C++/CLI 
int GetDeskewAngle(); 

Return Value

The angle of the skew of this image in degrees.

Example

For an example, refer to AutoPreprocess.

Remarks

If the page is not skewed, this method will return 0

Use AutoPreprocess with OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.Deskew to automatically deskew the page image prior to calling IOcrPage.Recognize or RecognizeText. This could enhance the quality of the image before starting its recognition.

If the image is skewed, GetDeskewAngle will return the angle needed to deskew the image, if you call AutoPreprocess on the page, all subsequent calls to GetDeskewAngle will return 0 since the image is no longer skewed. Hence, you must use GetDeskewAngle before calling AutoPreprocess.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family, Windows Vista, Windows 7
