First Claim
Patent Images
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 its structure properties; 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, and populating each instance with corresponding data from the document image.

Abstract
In one embodiment, there is disclosed a method capturing data from a document image. The method 300 comprises 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. The method may also include creating a document template for capturing data from a document image.

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 as the document template 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)
