The line extraction engines extract lines from the document and stores them into the workdoc as TextLines.
The selected line extraction engine is triggered after OCR recognition and detection of word objects. It is also executed by the script method pWorkdoc.RebuildBasicObjects.
The line extraction engine delivers the results as a collection of ISCBCdrTextBlock objects accessible through the workdoc interface within a script using the method pWorkdoc.Textline(LineIndex) .
The following line extraction engines are available.
- Brainware line extraction.
- Standard line extraction. This engine might be active for projects created with older versions and is available due to backwards compatibility reasons.
- Advanced line extraction. This is the recommended and default line extraction engine for all newly created projects.
The selected line extraction engine impacts the Format Analysis engine as it uses internal line objects for formats recognition.
