repository
Repository of the Master Forms.
ocrEngine
The IOcrEngine that is used for optical character recognition and processing.
barcodeEngine
The BarcodeEngine that is used for barcode recognition and processing.
managers
The Object Managers to be used to recognize forms and generate Master Forms attributes in GenerateMasterFormAttributes.
minimumConfidenceKnownForm
The minimum confidence value to decide that the Form type result is a known type. It ranges from 0 to 100 and usually it is less than minimumConfidenceRecognized.
minimumConfidenceRecognized
The minimum confidence value to decide that the Form type is recognized and no further comparison with Master Forms is needed. It ranges from 0 to 100 and usually it is greater than minimumConfidenceKnownForm.
recognizeFirstPageOnly
Recognize the form based on the first page only.
Initializes a new AutoFormsEngine class object.

Remarks

It is the user's responsibility to dispose of this object when it is no longer needed by calling Dispose.

If ocrEngine is null, OcrObjectsManager will not be used for recognition and TextFormField and OmrFormField will not be processed.

If barcodeEngine is null, BarcodeObjectsManager will not be used for recognition and BarcodeFormField will not be processed.

The recognition Object Managers will be set to the managers used to generate the Master Forms in the repository.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 family, Windows Server 2008 family
