OCR using Microsoft Office Document Imaging 12.0 Type Librar

Question

Hi

I am building a WPF application in which I need to do some OCR. I understand that it is possible to use the Microsoft Office Document Imaging 12.0 Type Library in Office 2007. However, I want my application to run also without office 2007 installed. Is there a separate download of Microsoft Office Document Imaging 12.0 Type Library that I can use for this purpose. I assume that all I need to do is to reference the appropriate dll in my application - correct?

NOTE: in local system my WPF Application working Fine.

Local system having Office 2007. but i want to run with out office..

any solution.... plz.

We tried using Microsoft Office Document Imaging but we found it requires a specific version of Microsoft office on each deployment machine. So we started searching for alternatives in the market. We found a commercial toolkit named leadtools that has strong OCR engines. I think you can find more information about this toolkit here: http://www.leadtools.com/sdk/ocr/default.htm
