ABSTRACT:
A personal imaging computer system includes an on-the-fly compression processor which operates in coordination with a document scanner to compress document image information as the document is being scanned. Once the document has been scanned and compressed, the personal imaging computer system operates to determine the identity of characters on the scanned-in document by decompressing the compressed image, processing the decompressed image so as to identify characters in the image, and by storing a text file which contains the identity of the characters so-determined. Preferably, the text file is stored in association with the compressed image so that the image may be retrieved in response to a text-based search of plural such text files.
