To specify a language for recognition, provide one of the following values in language property of recognition settings:
Mixed-language Cyrillic/English text recognition is experimental. If you are absolutely sure about the text language (for example, Ukrainian), it is recommended to specify the language directly.

If this parameter is omitted, the OCR engine will assume that the text is written in extended Latin.
Make sure you specify the correct language for the image. If you try to recognize Cyrillic text using
Language.ENG, only the characters that look the same in both languages (for example, с and c) will be correctly recognized. Other characters will be replaced with similar-looking alternatives.
Example
The following code sample demonstrates how to specify the recognition language:
# Instantiate Aspose.OCR API
api = AsposeOcr()
# Add image to the recognition batch
input = OcrInput(InputType.SINGLE_IMAGE)
input.add("source.png")
# Recognize Ukrainian text
recognitionSettings = RecognitionSettings()
recognitionSettings.language = Language.UKR
# Recognize the image
result = api.recognize(input, recognitionSettings)
# Print recognition result
print(result[0].recognition_text)
input("Press Enter to continue...")
