  • Patent number: 9348848
    Abstract: A method for identifying a table in a digital file includes extracting lines from a layout of the digital file, wherein the lines comprise horizontal lines and vertical lines. The method also includes identifying intersected line groups, wherein each intersected line group comprises a horizontal line of the extracted horizontal lines and a vertical line of the extracted vertical lines, the horizontal line and the vertical line intersecting with each other. The method further includes determining whether the number of intersected lines in each intersected line group is larger than a first threshold. If yes, the method further includes identifying an area in which the intersected line groups are located as a table area. If no, the method further includes performing vertical projection on characters in the area, and identifying the area as a table area based on results of the vertical projection.

    Abstract: A character display technique relating to computer information processing to improve the display of characters. Whether a thickening process on a glyph outline corresponding to a character to be displayed is needed is determined by calculating a mean grayscale value of pixels of a grayscale bitmap of the glyph outline. if thickening is to be performed, the thickening amount is determined on the basis of the mean grayscale value of pixels, and the thickened glyph outline is output for display, thereby minimizing problems of fading of the displayed color, fuzzy strokes and the like due to strokes that are too narrow, and thus improving the character display effect.
