Character and style recognition of scanned text

摘要

A method of determining style characteristics from scanned data includes identifying characters within the scanned data. The characters are then compared to a style library containing templates of each style characteristic to determine the style characteristics for each character. The scanned data is saved as processed data containing style characteristics of the scanned data. An information sheet containing the style characteristics of the scanned data can be printed or the style characteristics can be set as formatted text, along with the processed data, to be readable by a word processing program.
