How to get page orientation?

Hello,

I’m a bit confused about the proper way to get the page orientation with tesseract. I have tried the following:

using (var pi = page.AnalyseLayout())
{
    pi.Begin();
    return pi.GetProperties().Orientation;
}

But it always returns PageUp.

I have also tried page.DetectBestOrientation(out int orientation, out _) but this returns 270 even for a page that is supposed to be PageUp.

@tudorserbanuipath You need to have “osd.traineddata” file in the tessdata folder and when initializing the engine set language to “osd” - this worked for me to detect orientation e.g. using var engine = new TesseractEngine(@"./tessdata", "osd", EngineMode.Default);

@samtigall Replace using (var page = engine.Process(img)) by using (var page = engine.Process(img, PageSegMode.AutoOsd))
