CreateEmptyUserPattern Method of the Engine Object

This method creates an empty user pattern file (*.ptn) at the specified location.

Syntax

HRESULT CreateEmptyUserPattern( BSTR FileName );
    

Parameters

FileName
[in] This variable contains the full path to the newly created user pattern file, e.g., "/Users/user/Documents/pattern.ptn".

Return values

This method has no specific return values. It returns the standard return values of ABBYY FineReader Engine functions.

Remarks

  • User patterns are files that specify a number of pairs "image of a character — the character itself". User patterns may be used during recognition to identify characters of non-standard fonts. To use a user pattern during recognition, specify a path to it in the IRecognizerParams::UserPatternsFile property. User patterns may be trained using the TrainUserPattern method of the Engine object.
  • Pattern training is not supported for CJK languages.
