Abstract

See full text

A system and method for associating optical character recognition text data with source images are provided. In one embodiment, an association module of a computing system is configured to receive text data from an OCR engine; associate the text data with a source image; and output associated optical character recognition data including the source image, the text data associated with the source image, and a plurality of referrers. Each referrer of the plurality of referrers may indicate a different image reference. The plurality of referrers are configured to cause the viewer application to output the text data associated with the source image to each instance of the source image that is rendered as part of the fixed-layout document in accordance with the multiple image references.
