Abstract
Systems and methods for analyzing letters in an image of text are described. For each letter, a number of properties are determined and the letters are classified into letterform classes. The properties may include independent letter properties based on only the letter itself, such as a slanted bounding box encompassing the letter. The properties may also include dependent letter properties that are based, in part, on other letters, such as adjacent letters or letters in the same word or line.
