using (OCRProcessor processor = new OCRProcessor(@"TesseractBinaries\Windows"))
{
//Load a PDF document
FileStream stream = new FileStream(@"Input.pdf", FileMode.Open);
PdfLoadedDocument document = new PdfLoadedDocument(stream);

//Set OCR language
processor.Settings.Language = Languages.English;

//Perform OCR with input document and tessdata (Language packs)
 processor.PerformOCR(document, @"tessdata\");

MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();

 //Save the document into stream.
 document.Save(stream); 

//If the position is not set to '0' then the PDF will be empty.
