Property Value
Byte value.The most significant bit is used to express the certainty/uncertainty of the word (word is uncertain, if this bit set to one (1)). The remaining bits represent the certainty of the character recognition, which ranges between 0 and 100. The smaller this value is, the higher is the confidence of the recognition. See Confidence Reporting section for more details.
The Confidence and WordUncertain properties, provided for the sake of convenience, offer the same information but already separated out into two separate values. Note also that the scale used by the Confidence
property is inverted to reflect the intuitive understanding of confidence, rather than error estimation.
