CREATING A DOCUMENT TEMPLATE FOR CAPTURING DATA FROM A DOCUMENT IMAGE AND CAPTURING DATA FROM A DOCUMENT IMAGE
First Claim
1. A method of capturing data from a document image, the method comprising:
- processing the document image to identify at least one repetitive structure; and
performing a capturing operation including creating a plurality of instances of the repetitive structure based on once-described structure properties of the repetitive structure in a document template, and populating each instance with corresponding data from the document image.

Abstract
In one embodiment, there is disclosed a method 300 of (and system for) capturing data from a document image 100. The method 300 comprises processing the document image 100 to identify at least one repetitive structure 102, 104.2 and performing a capturing operation including creating a plurality of instances of the repetitive structure 102, 104.2 based on once-described structure properties (Table 1), 400 of the repetitive structure 102, 104.2 in a document template, and populating each instance with corresponding data from the document image 100.
There is also disclosed a method 200 of (and system for) creating a document template for capturing data from a document image 100.

8. A method of creating a document template for capturing data from a document image, the method comprising:
-
identifying at least one repetitive structure to be encountered in the document image from which data is to be captured; and storing structure properties to process the repetitive structure in the document image, wherein the structure properties are described once in the document template, regardless of a number of occurrences of the repetitive structure in the document image. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
