Returns the text found using OCR in an image file. Use when debugging OCR statements.
For example, if you use the SaveRegionToImageFile statement to make sure the correct region of an application is read using OCR, you can use this statement to check the text returned from the saved image and determine if changes are needed in the OCR playback options. See Troubleshooting OCR issues.
