<p>Detects text in the input document. Amazon Textract can detect lines of text and the words that make up a line of text. The input document must be in one of the following image formats: JPEG, PNG, PDF, or TIFF. <code>DetectDocumentText</code> returns the detected text in an array of <a>Block</a> objects. </p> <p>Each document page has as an associated <code>Block</code> of type PAGE. Each PAGE <code>Block</code> object is the parent of LINE <code>Block</code> objects that represent the lines of detected text on a page. A LINE <code>Block</code> object is a parent for each word that makes up the line. Words are represented by <code>Block</code> objects of type WORD.</p> <p> <code>DetectDocumentText</code> is a synchronous operation.
