Abstract: A method for securely transmitting deterrent data includes generating a deterrent having a predesigned number and configuration of glyphs having deterrent data therein, and transmitting a portion of the deterrent data from a subset of the glyphs without transmitting deterrent data from a remainder of the glyphs. The glyphs form a predetermined structure with a single solution. The method further includes receiving the portion of the deterrent data, placing the portion of the deterrent data into the subset of the glyphs, and solving the predetermined structure with the single solution, thereby determining the remainder of the glyphs to be infilled in the predetermined structure with deterrent data gleaned from the solution.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention recite a system and method for creating an editable template from a document image. In one embodiment of the present invention, the spatial characteristics and the color characteristics of at least one region of a document are identified. A set of characteristics of a graphic representation within the region are then determined without the necessity of recognizing a character comprising the graphic representation. An editable template is then created comprising a second region having the same spatial characteristics and the same color characteristics of the at least one region of the document and comprising a second graphic representation which is defined by the set of characteristics of the first graphic representation.

Abstract: A reading device reads ambiguous target elements of an authentication target printed on a medium. Each ambiguous target element has a number of different manners by which the ambiguous target element can be interpreted by the reading device. The authentication target as read by the reading device is compared against an authentication signature of the reading device. The authentication signature specifies for each ambiguous target element an expected manner by which the reading device interprets the ambiguous target element as one of the different manners by which the ambiguous target element can be interpreted. Where the authentication target as read by the reading device matches the authentication signature of the reading device, the reading device is signaled as having passed authentication.

Abstract: A user interface high-lighter function for scanner software that allows a user to automatically select a portion or several disjoint portions of text within a region of text in a preview scan of a document. When activated, the high-lighter function causes the normal mouse cursor to be replaced with a high-lighter icon having an active edge. Using the mouse, the active edge of the high-lighter icon is moved across a desired portion of text, and background pixels traversed are displayed in a different color. The traversed pixels are then used as input for an image processing routine. Text regions are generated from the traversed pixels. The beginning and ending of lines not high-lighted are cropped. A polygonal bounding box is then displayed around the selected text. An un-highlight mode can be activated to reduce the selected text. An optimized re-scan of the to selected text can now be performed.

Abstract: A user interface for scanner software that allows a variable resolution preview scan of a document to be presented to the user in a preview box within a scanner software window. The user clicks on a point within the preview scan, and the classification of the image immediately around the click point is determined. A selection marker is automatically drawn around the selected image, and all portions of the preview scan outside the selection marker are grayed out. Based on the classification, adjustments are made automatically, and windows having control tools for adjusting various aspects of the selected image are automatically enabled or disabled. Once the desired area is properly selected and any adjustments have been made, the user can drag and drop the selected image with a mouse onto the desktop, a folder, or an open application to launch an optimized final scan of the selected image.

Abstract: In a method (300) for applying differential policies on at least one digital document (120a-120n) having a plurality of atomic units (122a-122n) among a plurality of workflow participants (110a-110n), in which the atomic units are assigned with at least one of a plurality of the differential policies, the at least one digital document is tessellated (304) to identify the atomic units and the at least one of the differential policies assigned to the atomic units. In addition, the atomic units are aggregated (306) according to the at least one of the differential policies assigned to the atomic units and respective sets of keys are associated (308) to the aggregated atomic units, in which common sets of keys are associated with the aggregated atomic units assigned with the same policies.
