Abstract
A document processing system produces a digital representation of an original image by determining a background level for white space of the original image. Using the background level, the system identifies pixels not belonging to the white space. The system generates a binary image of the original image based from the identified pixels. The system then identifies image content surrounded by the white space in the original image using the binary image. Next, the system generates a block for each image content and extracts each block from the original image. After processing each block, the system reapplies the processed blocks to a blank canvas to generate the digital representation.
