    Abstract: A method of digitally processing a digital image file comprising a print image and a non-print portion, in order to isolate the print image from the non-print port ion of the digital image file, comprising the steps of converting the digital image file to grayscale whereby a grayscale image is created, creating a blurred copy of the grayscale image whereby a blurred grayscale image is created, creating a composite image comprising the difference between the blurred grayscale image and the grayscale image, creating a negative image comprising the negative of the composite image, removing dithering from the negative image, resulting in a dithered image, normalizing the colorspace of the dithered image to black and white, replacing white pixels with transparent pixel information to form a processed print image, and saving the processed print image in an image file format with transparency support.
