The disk eventually fills up. How can I either prevent the .tmp file or delete it when OCR is done with it?   Thanks    Report

Not only does it create temp files on save, but whenever I add a page to an OCR object. Here's my code OCRObject.Startup()     // load the image stream in here OCRObject.AddPage(LeadImage,0); When the OCRObject starts a temp folder is created in my Documents and Settings folder. I then load the image stream with a .jpg file, then I add the page to the OCR Object. This is when it creates a .tmp file of my image. This is fairly basic stuff and I can't beleive someone hasn;t already asked this question or it's something that is easily worked around. As it stands now I have to manually clear our users temp folder every few days. Thanks, Scott    Report

Second, please find the file xocr.dll (either in your Windows\system32 directory for versions 14.5 and older or your [LEADTOOLS]\Bin\Common\OCR\ directory for 15) and let me know what the file version is.

11-11-2008, 14:34 DougJPel Joined on 11-11-2008 Posts 1 Re: .tmp files on Save I see the same problem and it occurs with the RasterDocumentEngine.AddPage() call.  Every call to this method generates a temp folder (tmpXXX) and a copy of the image page with a temporary filename (tmpXXX.tmp).  After the OCR process is complete (finding zones and performing recognition) a call is made to the RemovePage() method for each page.  I would expect the temp folders/files to be removed at that step, but it is not happening. Are temporary folders/files necessary or can they be avoided?  If the stuff is required what is the recommended method for removing them? Using LeadTools 15.0 with XOCR.DLL 12.7.2006.10.41. Thanks.
