First, make a Blazor Server application.
Launch Visual Studio and make a new project called Blazor Server App.

Install the necessary NuGet package in step two.
Install the Tesseract wrapper by opening the Package Manager Console.

Install-Package Tesseract

Step 3. Download Language Data

• Go to Tesseract tessdata GitHub repo
• Download eng. traineddata (for English)
• Create a folder in your project named tessdata
• Add the downloaded file to that folder
• Set its properties: Copy to Output Directory → Copy if newer

Step 4. Download Language Data
@page "/"
@rendermode InteractiveServer
@using Tesseract
@inject IWebHostEnvironment Env

<PageTitle>Image OCR</PageTitle>

<h1>Image to Text (OCR)</h1>

<InputFile OnChange="HandleFileSelected" />
<br />
<button class="btn btn-primary mt-2" @onclick="ExtractTextFromImage">Extract Text</button>

@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(extractedText))
{
    <h3>Extracted Text:</h3>
    <pre>@extractedText</pre>
}

@code {
    private string? imagePath;
    private string? extractedText;

    async Task HandleFileSelected(InputFileChangeEventArgs e)
    {
        var file = e.File;
        var uploads = Path.Combine(Env.WebRootPath, "uploads");

        if (!Directory.Exists(uploads))
            Directory.CreateDirectory(uploads);

        imagePath = Path.Combine(uploads, file.Name);

        using var stream = File.Create(imagePath);
        await file.OpenReadStream().CopyToAsync(stream);
    }

    void ExtractTextFromImage()
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(imagePath))
            return;

        var tessDataPath = Path.Combine(Env.ContentRootPath, "tessdata");

        using var engine = new TesseractEngine(tessDataPath, "eng", EngineMode.Default);
        using var img = Pix.LoadFromFile(imagePath);
        using var page = engine.Process(img);

        extractedText = page.GetText();
    }
}

Step 5. Run the Application

• Run your Blazor Server app.
• Navigate to /ocr in the browser.
