Abstract

A computer implemented method of analyzing the content of a digital image, for example a page to be printed, computes a boundary enclosing all the non-white content of the image. The image within the boundary is then divided into regions based on a predetermined division rule. For each region the number of unique colors and the proportion of non-white pixels are computed. The image is then categorized according to the result of those computations. The categorization can be used to automatically set print settings according to the content of the image.
