Extracting text from invoices

Even a small business may deal with dozens of printed invoices per day. Manual re-typing is time consuming and error-prone, and even a single mistake may result in significant losses.

Aspose.OCR offers a special recognition algorithm that extracts text from scanned invoices, which can then be automatically sent to accounting programs, databases or banks.

To extract text from an invoice, use RecognizeInvoice method of Aspose.OCR.AsposeOcr class.

This method allows you to customize recognition accuracy, performance, and other settings.

The method takes OcrInput object and returns a RecognitionResult object containing the invoice data.

Aspose.OCR.AsposeOcr recognitionEngine = new Aspose.OCR.AsposeOcr();
// Add images to OcrInput object
Aspose.OCR.OcrInput input = new Aspose.OCR.OcrInput(Aspose.OCR.InputType.SingleImage);
input.Add("invoice1.png");
input.Add("invoice2.png");
// Recognition settings
Aspose.OCR.InvoiceRecognitionSettings recognitionSettings = new Aspose.OCR.InvoiceRecognitionSettings();
recognitionSettings.Language = Aspose.OCR.Language.Latin;
// Recognize invoices
List<Aspose.OCR.RecognitionResult> results = recognitionEngine.RecognizeInvoice(input, recognitionSettings);
foreach(Aspose.OCR.RecognitionResult result in results)
{
	Console.WriteLine(result.RecognitionText);
}
