Abstract
Methods and systems print an original image to form a printed sheet, scan the printed sheet, and overlay the original image on an area of the scanned image where original image is located, to produce an overlay image. A border is added to the original image in the overlay image to modify the original image into an enlarged original image. Markings from an area of the overlay image where the enlarged original image is positioned are removed to produce a white space image. Defects in the white space image are detected and highlighted by adding highlight markings to the white space image where the defects are located, to produce a defect image. The defect image is displayed.
