--cjkTextDirection*

Horizontal
The text to be recognised is arranged horizontally.

Vertical
The text to be recognised is arranged vertically. Characters are written one below the other, top to bottom.

Character confidence will be defined more accurately, but recognition speed may get slower.

The increase of errors can be easily  eliminated  by using various scenarios, e.g. the full text indexing with "fuzzy" search, preliminary recognition, etc.
