ABSTRACT:
A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for content-adaptive scaling of document images is described. In one embodiment, the method comprises identifying spatial relationships between document objects of a document image, determining space separating pairs of neighboring document objects, and determining at least one scaling factor based on the space separating the document objects in the document image and based on display device characteristics.
