INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17981307 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes an information processing apparatus that can generate data from a scanned document image and apply character decorations to the recognized character areas. The apparatus includes one or more memories and processors that are configured to perform the following steps:
- Generate data containing information about character strings recognized from a scanned document image.
- Detect character areas within the scanned document image that correspond to the recognized character strings.
- Generate a preview image of the scanned document image with character decorations applied to the character areas.
- Transmit the preview image, data, and the file containing the scanned document image together.
- Apply the same character decoration to each character string included in the data as the character areas on the preview image.
Potential applications of this technology include:
- Document processing and editing software that can automatically recognize and highlight specific character areas within scanned documents.
- Optical character recognition (OCR) systems that can enhance the visual representation of recognized character strings in scanned documents.
- Collaborative document editing platforms that can transmit preview images with character decorations to multiple users.
Problems solved by this technology include:
- Simplifying the process of identifying and highlighting specific character areas within scanned documents.
- Improving the visual representation of recognized character strings in scanned documents.
- Enhancing the collaboration and communication between users working with scanned documents.
Benefits of this technology include:
- Increased efficiency in document processing and editing tasks.
- Improved accuracy and readability of recognized character strings in scanned documents.
- Enhanced collaboration and communication among users working with scanned documents.
Original Abstract Submitted
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an information processing apparatus comprises one or more memories, and one or more processors in communication with the one or more memories, wherein the one or more processors are configured to generate data including information of one or more character strings recognized from a scanned document image, wherein the one or more character strings correspond respectively to one or more character areas detected from the scanned document image, generate a preview image with a character decoration to the one or more character areas of the scanned document image; and transmit the preview image, the data, and the file including the scanned document image together, wherein a same character decoration as each of the one or more character areas on the preview image is applied for a different one of the one or more character strings included in the data.
