Hello
We are licensed user of Leadtools v18. We develope a small application to convert image pdfs to searchable pdfs.
But the generation process stays unresponsive at some pdf files. There is no progress, no exception.

I have posted two pdf files. They are almost exactly same but a few data like name, surname.
Generation process is being completed successfully on 00135.pdf file. No problem, it's ok.
But 00136.pdf file is being locked at 40% of FindZone process.

I have tried AutoZone and AutoPreProcess functions but no success.

What would be your suggest about this problem? Thank you for your help.

File Attachment(s):

00135.pdf (292kb) downloaded 50 time(s).

File Attachment(s):

00136.pdf (290kb) downloaded 50 time(s).

here is output:
Page:00(00:00) 005% Operation:FindZones
Page:00(00:00) 040% Operation:FindZones
The thread 0x31d8 has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The thread 0x433c has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The thread 0x6288 has exited with code 0 (0x0).

My Code:
DocumentWriter docWriter = new DocumentWriter();

IOcrEngine ocrEngine = OcrEngineManager.CreateEngine(OcrEngineType.Advantage, false);

ocrEngine.Startup(null, docWriter, null, Application.StartupPath);

PdfDocumentOptions pdfOptions = docWriter.GetOptions(DocumentFormat.Pdf) as PdfDocumentOptions;
pdfOptions.ImageOverText = true;

string singlePageSearchablePDFAddress = "00136.pdf";

using (IOcrDocument ocrDocument = ocrEngine.DocumentManager.CreateDocument())
{
docWriter.BeginDocument(singlePageSearchablePDFAddress, DocumentFormat.Pdf);

ocrDocument.Pages.AddPage(singlePageImagePDFAddress, null);

try
{
//ocrDocument.Pages[0].AutoPreprocess(OcrAutoPreprocessPageCommand.All, new OcrProgressCallback(MyOcrProgressCallback));
//ocrDocument.Pages[0].AutoZone(new OcrProgressCallback(MyOcrProgressCallback));

ocrDocument.Pages.Recognize(new OcrProgressCallback(MyOcrProgressCallback));
ocrDocument.Save(singlePageSearchablePDFAddress, DocumentFormat.Pdf, null);
docWriter.EndDocument();
}
catch (Exception)
{

docWriter.EndDocument();
File.Delete(singlePageSearchablePDFAddress);
File.Copy(singlePageImagePDFAddress, singlePageSearchablePDFAddress);
}
finally
{

}

Hello Deniz,

There are a few issues with your code, though I'm not sure if they would be causing the issue you're seeing. I've attached a complete sample project which contains the corrected version of the code you sent me. Note, some of the variables you used were not defined in your code, so I've cleaned it up a bit. Please make sure to update the config section at the top of the application before running.

The project also contains a bit of .NET reflection so it can log the DLLs used by the application, but that happens at the end. The full output when running on my system was:
