(Default for spell checking). |

This enumeration identifies the different languages supported directly by the Engine. In the Engine these languages are used in two different places:
To define the Language environment of the Character Set, these languages are to be specified as indices to a enumIGRecLangEnable array where the selection/deselection of a language means setting the proper element of the array to IG_REC_LANG_ENABLED / IG_REC_LANG_DISABLED. Recognition modules, especially the omnifont ones (IG_REC_RM_OMNIFONT_MTX and IG_REC_RM_OMNIFONT_MOR, support the recognition of different accented letters of the languages enumerated here.
Languages not listed here individually are supported for recognition either by combining the available languages and/or by specifying individually validated characters (the LanguagesPlus characters - IG_REC_languagesplus_set) in addition to those defined by the language selection.
When this enum is used for specifying the Spelling language, you can only use languages supported by the current engine configuration (and delivered along with the integrating application). You can also use the IG_REC_LANG_AUTO and the IG_REC_LANG_NO values. (The ImageGear Recognition componentis delivered with support for 21 different spell languages. However, the distribution set of the integrating application may contain support for fewer dictionary languages.)
Specifying two or more languages for recognition results in validation of a combined (OR-ed) set of the characters of these languages. While most of the modules allow any combination of languages, the enumIGRecRecognitionModule.IG_REC_RM_OMNIFONT_FRX module supports language combinations only within the same Code Page. For example, this module properly processes the English, German, and Italian language combinations, since all these languages belong to the Windows ANSI (1252) Code Page. However, when specifying, e.g., both the French and Czech languages, IG_REC_RM_OMNIFONT_FRX may fail to recognize some accented characters properly in the Czech alphabet, since these languages are not in the same Code Page.
