1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, data representing an image of text, and data representing the text in non-image form;
determining, by the processor, a valid content boundary within the image of the text;
for each character of a plurality of characters within the text in the non-image form,determining, by the processor, a location of the character within the image of the text;
where the location of the character within the image of the text falls outside the valid content boundary, removing the character from the data representing the text in the non-image form, by the processor.

Abstract
Data representing an image of text is received, as is data representing the text in non-image form. A valid content boundary within the image of the text is determined. For each character within the text in the non-image form, a location of the character within the image of the text is determined. Where the location of the character within the image of the text falls outside the valid content boundary, the character is removed from the data representing the text in the non-image form.

16. A computing system comprising:
-
a processor; a computer-readable data storage medium to store data representing an image of text, and data representing the text in non-image form; and
,logic executable by the processor to determine a valid content boundary within the image of the text, and for each character of a plurality of characters within the text in the non-image form, to remove the character from the data representing the text in the non-image form where the logic has determined that a location of the character within the image of the text falls outside the valid content boundary. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
