            if (this.openFileDialog1.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)

            {

                this.axImageViewer1.FileName = openFileDialog1.FileName;

                this.axImageViewer1.MouseTrackMode = SCRIBBLELib.MOUSE_TRACKMODE.NoSelectionRectMode;

            }

        }

        private void buttonSelFontFile_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

            {

                txtfontfile.Text = openFileDialog1.FileName;

            }

        }

        private void buttonConvert_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (this.axImageViewer1.FileName == "")

            {

                MessageBox.Show("Please select image first");
               return;

            }

            axImageViewer1.OCRScanTextAsync(true);

            short ilangindex = 0;

            if (radioLang1.Checked)
               ilangindex = 0;
           else

            {

                ilangindex = 7;

                axImageViewer1.OCR2SearchablePDFFontFile = txtfontfile.Text;

            }

            if(txtfontfile.Text == "" && ilangindex == 7)

            {

                MessageBox.Show("Please select unicode font file");

                return;

            axImageViewer1.OCRCharFilter = "";

            axImageViewer1.OCRSetRect(0, 0, 0, 0);

            axImageViewer1.OCRRecognizeMode = 2;

            short iresult;

            this.saveFileDialog1.Filter = "PDF File (*.pdf)|*.pdf";

            if (this.saveFileDialog1.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)
