| abstract |
Techniques for desirably translating a document image to an editable electronic textual document are presented. Utilizing respective applications, a document processing management component (DPMC) can convert the document image to a grayscale document image, remove noise from such image, rotate such image to reduce or eliminate any skewing of such image, and perform character recognition on the rotated grayscale document image to extract the textual information from such document to generate an electronic textual document. DPMC can associate a document identifier with the electronic textual document, and such document and document identifier can be stored in a data store. When such document is related to a device or other item, a code or textual string can be associated with the device or item, wherein a communication device can scan the code or textual string. In response, DPMC can retrieve such document, or information relating thereto, from the data store. |
