Abstract
A method to transmit drawings or images comprising text to low display ability terminals, and more particularly to cellular phones or equivalent mobile devices. The transmission is possible in the best conditions and automatically. The transmission enables the consultation or display by the user of these drawings or images comprising text, on a low display ability terminal. These images can have the form of a plate of several images or an individual image comprising text. This operation is possible by automatically transforming the drawings or images via image analysis into image entities formed by an image zone and a text zone; and without requiring any extra work by the publisher or author of the drawings or images comprising text.
