Have any one success with Scan and OCR to database?

[dutch]

Dear All,

I would like to scan passport and extract text from the image (OCR) to database file? I can scan the passport but how can I extract from image file to text.

Hi,
you could try the free eztwain with the transym ocr (about 50USD).

Dear All,

Thanks George for your idea.

Marco, I'm quite interesting but cannot search who use this in the forum. The cost is not a point, if it can. I've use EZTWAIN32.DLL for scan a passport. It will be a best choice, if it can extract with Transym OCR (TOCR).
Have you got an sample to use TOCR? If so, thank you in advance and very kindness.

Hi Dutch,
I'm using at this moment only the OCR translation of barcode 3of9 based on the embedded Eztwain OCR barcode module and I' not using the Transym add-on.
Anycase what you need is very simple to have and you don't need any OCR class because Eztwain already support Transym so you only need to activate the Transym from Eztwain with a simple call.

From the Eztwain guide:

Using TOCR with EZTwain Pro is relatively simple:
1. Install the TOCR product according to Transym's directions.
2. In your application, start by selecting the TOCR engine using
OCR_SelectEngine(EZOCR_ENGINE_TRANSYM)
(Or the equivalent in your programming language.)
3. If that returns True (1) you may invoke other OCR services either directly
using OCR_RecognizeDib, or indirectly using functions such as
