Abstract

See full text

A method of removing a barcode from the bitmap representation of a document is disclosed. The barcode comprises a plurality of data encoding symbols (102) and (104). The method starts with the step of scanning said document containing the barcode to form the bitmap representation of the at least a portion of the document. From said bitmap representation, the plurality of data encoding symbols (102) and (104), defining said barcode, are identified and the barcode is decoded at least partially. The locations of data encoding symbols (102) and (104) in the bitmap representation of said document are then identified, using data obtained during the at least partial decoding of said barcode. Finally, at least some of the data encoding symbols (102) and (104) are removed from said bitmap representation of said document.
