Abstract: A method for creating a text label for a first digital image includes a portion of a second digital image. The first digital image includes a plurality of pixels selected from the second digital image. The first digital image also includes at least one non-text string element. A computer processor is configured to search the first or second digital images for a text string and identify whether the text string is a candidate text string based on at least one first criteria associated with the said text string. Upon determining the text string is a candidate text string, the method creates a text label for the first digital image based upon the candidate text string.
