FRPage Object (IFRPage Interface)

This object corresponds to a page. It provides a set of methods for page preprocessing, analysis, recognition, page synthesis, and export. The methods of this object do not perform document synthesis (except for the Synthesize method). Before exporting the results you must explicitly call some method which performs document synthesis. See Tuning Parameters of Preprocessing, Analysis, Recognition, and Synthesis for details.

The FRPage object is a so-called "connectable object." This means that it supports the IConnectionPointContainer interface. To receive notification events during processing, you should create an object derived from the IFRPageEvents interface, then advise it to the FRPage object by the call to the AdviseFREngineObject global function.

Properties

Name Type Description
Application Engine, read-only Returns the Engine object.
Common attributes
Document FRDocument, read-only Returns the document which contains the page.
ImageDocument ImageDocument, read-only Provides access to the image of the page.
Layout Layout

Provides access to the layout of the page.

Note: When you assign a Layout object to this property (for example, when transferring data from one page to another), the logical structure of the corresponding document becomes invalid. It is necessary to restore the document structure by calling one of the synthesis methods. However, you do not need to perform synthesis for the whole document, it is only necessary to synthesize changed pages, e.g., using the Synthesize method.
PlainText PlainText, read-only Returns the text of the page in a special "plain text" format.
SourceImagePath BSTR, read-only Specifies the full path to the source image of the page.
Page languages
BasicLanguage BSTR, read-only

Specifies the main language of the recognized page. The property contains the internal name of the first language in the collection of detected languages (DetectedLanguages property).

This property has a meaningful value only if recognition was performed with the automatic language detection on (see the IRecognizerParams::LanguageDetectionMode property for details).

By default, it is an empty string.
DetectedLanguages DetectedLanguages, read-only

Provides access to the collection of recognition languages detected on the recognized page. Languages in the collection are sorted by the frequency of occurrence: from the most frequently occurred to the least.

This property has a meaningful value only if recognition was performed with the automatic language detection on (see the IRecognizerParams::LanguageDetectionMode property for details).

The list of languages is updated only after recognition, i.e., if you edit the layout of the page manually, the collection remains the same.
Page structure
PageStructureOutOfDate VARIANT_BOOL, read-only Specifies whether the logical structure of the page is out of date. If this property is TRUE, you should perform document synthesis for the page before export. Otherwise, an error will occur during export.
SourceFilePageIndex int, read-only Returns the index of the page in the source file.
SourceHasDigitalSignature VARIANT_BOOL, read-only Indicates whether the source file of this page was a digitally signed PDF.
Business cards
BusinessCards BusinessCards, read-only Provides access to the collection of business cards detected on the page.
Undo support
UndoSupport VARIANT_BOOL

Specifies whether the Undo and Redo methods are allowed. If the value of this property is TRUE, all the commands called with the help of the methods that can modify the page (such as methods of the FRPage or the ImageDocument object) can be added to an undo stack. To add to the stack the commands which were called from the API, use the Update method.
CanRedo VARIANT_BOOL, read-only

Specifies whether the Redo method can be executed for the latest undone command which was called with the help of one of the methods that can modify the page (such as methods of the FRPage or the ImageDocument object).
CanUndo VARIANT_BOOL, read-only

Specifies whether the Undo method can be executed for the latest command which was called with the help of one of the methods that can modify the page (such as methods of the FRPage or the ImageDocument object).

Methods

Name Description
AddWordsToCacheDictionary This method adds a group of words to the cache dictionary.
AddWordToCacheDictionary This method adds one word to the cache dictionary.
Analyze Analyzes the page.
AnalyzeRegion Analyzes layout of the image inside the specified region.
AnalyzeTable Replaces a specified block with a table block and analyzes the structure of the table.
CleanCacheDictionary This method deletes all words from the cache dictionary.
CorrectGeometricalDistortions Straightens out distorted lines on an image. Distorted lines may occur close to the binding when scanning/photographing thick books.
DetectOrientation Detects page orientation.
DetectResolution Selects the best resolution from the specified range.
Export Saves a page into a file in an external format.
ExtractBarcodes Finds and recognizes all barcode blocks.
ExtractMrz Extracts data from a machine-readable zone (MRZ).
FindPageSplitPosition Finds the position where the image can be split.
Flush Unloads and, if necessary, saves to disk the ImageDocument and the Layout objects corresponding to the FRPage object if there are no references to them. Saving to disk is an option, you can omit this stage if the data has not been changed.
IsEmpty Checks if the page is empty.
LearnCheckmarks Trains FineReader Engine to recognize checkmarks of a custom type.
PreprocessAnalyzeRecognize Performs preprocessing, layout analysis, recognition, and page synthesis of the page.
Preprocess Preprocesses the page: corrects page orientation, inversion, geometrical distortions. Page preprocessing is performed before page analysis.
Recognize Recognizes the page and performs page synthesis.
RecognizeBlocks Recognizes text and performs page synthesis in an explicitly specified set of blocks.
Redo

Redoes the latest undone command which was called from the FineReader Engine API.
Synthesize Performs document synthesis for the individual page.
SynthesizeBusinessCard Tries to find business card fields in the specified recognized region.
SynthesizeBusinessCardEx Tries to find business card fields in the specified recognized region using the synthesis parameters.
Undo

Undoes the latest command which was called from the FineReader Engine API.
Update

Saves the changes in the page layout in the undo stack.

Note: When you call this method, the logical structure of the corresponding document becomes invalid. It is necessary to restore the document structure by calling one of the synthesis methods. However, you do not need to perform synthesis for the whole document, it is only necessary to synthesize changed pages, e.g., using the Synthesize method.
