Zusammenfassung:A method for encoding a text image. In one embodiment the method comprises determining a background color of an image; dividing the image into text pixels and background pixels, each of the background pixels comprising the background color; determining a text color based on colors of the text pixels; determining a text attribute comprising a luminance profile describing a contour of luminance of a set of the text pixels; generating a binary text mask based on position and luminance of each of the text pixels and the luminance profile; and generating, by a computer, an encoded image comprising the background color, the text color, the binary text mask, and the text attribute.
