Abstract
Techniques are described for performing automatic generation of one or more tags associated with an image file. One or more ink annotations for a displayed image are received. Handwriting recognition processing of the one or more ink annotations is performed. A string is generated and the string includes one or more recognized words used to form the one or more tags associated with the image file. The handwriting recognition processing and generating the string are performed in response to receiving the ink annotations.

20. A computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon for performing automatic generation of one or more tags associated with an image file, the computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon for:
-
displaying an image in accordance with image data from the image file; interactively inputting ink annotations in the form of digital handwriting over the image as displayed so that the ink annotations are displayed as inputted at arbitrary locations over the image; in response to interactively inputting the ink annotations, automatically; performing handwriting recognition processing of the one or more ink annotations, generating a string including one or more words recognized by the handwriting recognition processing, and storing the one or more words as metadata in an image file that includes the image data unaltered by the ink annotations.
