Supported Languages and Language Dictionaries

Languages can be recognized if the OCR engine supports that language's character set. LEADTOOLS recognizes dozens of languages, enumerated in DOC2_LANGIDS.

In addition, many recognized languages also have spelling dictionaries, enabling spell-checking after character recognition is complete. Languages for which spell-checking is supported are listed below, along with their associated dictionary file.

All languages to be recognized can be selected using L_Doc2SelectLanguages / L_Doc2SelectLanguagesExt.

The language dictionary to use for spell-checking should be specified in the SpellLangId member of the pRecogOpts parameter passed to the L_Doc2Recognize / L_Doc2RecognizeExt function.

For more information on options for the recognition process, refer to RECOGNIZEOPTS2.
