NearOCR.Letter

public class Letter
extends CharacterImage

Stores a single character and forms the bulk of a Document. Letters store many things which allow them to be placed in documents: A value: The value of this letter (e.g. A, L, ;, etc) An original image: the BufferedImage which represents the original, unscaled cut from the original document (can represent arbitrary data but the OCRManager takes care of slicing in most cases) A scaled image: An image that has been scaled in line with the aspect ratio of the original, then pasted into an area which is a size as exactly specified in the scale method. This is used to ensure that net inputs always have the correct amount of pixels. The position and dimensions of the unscaled image - this is used to place the final output into a document and also to calculate some scaling intricacies.

The scaled image is always calculated from the original, retaining quality across any number of resize operations
