In the ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK, does the order of Language parameter values matter?


When using the the ABBYY Cloud OCR SDK, one of the optional parameters is "language," which will accept a comma-separated list of languages the service should look for when recognizing the text. Does anyone know if the order of these matters? For example, when calling the processBusinessCard method as documented here

Would a language option of English,Japanese behave any differently from Japanese,English - for example by preferring the detection of one language over the other?

I'm trying to decide if I can use a simple checkbox group to set the values for this setting, or if I need to provide an interface that allows for ordering.

UPDATE: I've tested reordering the languages, and it doesn't seem to change the behavior.


Solution

  • As I know there is no difference. But to be sure you can upload sample image into demo-service and to try both ways.

    A little tip: you can use ABBYY OCR SDK forum for contacting support team.
