Package Manager Console Command


  PM> Install-Package Aspose.OCR.Cpp

With C++ OCR and just a few lines of code, you can create full-featured application that converts an JPEG image to Searchable PDF document:

  • Create an instance of AsposeOcr class
  • Call AsposeOCR.asposeocr_page() method
  • Pass the JPEG file path as parameter
  • AsposeOCR.asposeocr_page returns a String or file of Searchable PDF type

System Requirements

Before running the example, make sure that Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntime 1.7.0 or above is added to the project. It should be automatically installed if you install Aspose.OCR via NuGet Package Manager.

  • NET Standard 2.0+ compatible solution
  • Aspose.OCR for .NET referenced in your project.


std::string img_path = "../srcSample.png";

// Prepare buffer for result (in symbols, len_byte = len * sizeof(wchar_t))
const size_t len = 4096;

wchar_t bfr[len] = { 0 };

size_t result = aspose::ocr::page(image_path.c_str(), bfr, len);

//Print result
std::wcout << bfr << L"\n";
  • JPEG What is JPEG File Format

    A JPEG is a type of image format that is saved using the method of lossy compression. The output image, as result of compression, is a trade-off between storage size and image quality. Users can adjust the compression level to achieve the desired quality level while at the same time reduce the storage size. Image quality is negligibly affected if 10:1 compression is applied to the image. The higher the compression value, the higher the degradation in image quality.

    Searchable PDF What is Searchable PDF File Format

    Searchable PDF files retain the original scanned image for viewing, as well as OCR text in a hidden layer that can be used for full-text searches within a document or highlighting text for copy and paste operations. Full OCR conversion to PDF, not including the original image, will never retain 100% of the original formatting, especially if the document has many images or a complex layout.
