Abstract
Apparatuses and methods relate generally to reducing data usage by a document processing system. In one such method, a segmented layout of a page from a preprocessed image thereof is detected. Components of the layout are separated into one or more blocks. Each type of the one or more blocks are identified. A block of the one or more blocks identified as a text block is converted to text. Meta information for the block is stored. A formatted page for the page including the text and the meta information is constructed. It is determined whether the formatted page has a smaller storage size than the preprocessed image associated with the formatted page.
