There are four types of results to use for zonal recognition. All are derived from the Result object.

The result types are:

• Result class (ICR: Result; OCR: Result) - The base object within which all other result objects are defined. Within this object you can get the properties of a result.
• CharacterResult class (ICR: CharacterResult; OCR: CharacterResult) - This object is derived from the Result object. It represents recognition of a single character. Most of the properties in this object are read-only.
• TextLineResult class (ICR: TextLineResult; OCR: TextLineResult) - This object is derived from the Result object. It is used for text line recognition results. The properties in this object are read-only.
• TextBlockResult class (ICR: TextBlockResult; OCR: TextBlockResult) - This object is derived from the Result object. It is used for text block recognition results. The properties in this object are read-only.

Better results may be obtained by proper image processing, good segmentation and setting recognition, character sets, and, if applicable, field types (ICR: FieldType; OCR: FieldType) and/or data validation lists (ICR: DataValidationListCount; OCR: DataValidationListCount) correctly.
