Original Abstract

A great amount of information is still being stored in loosely structured documents in several widely used formats. Due to the lack of data description in these documents, their integration to the existing information systems requires sophisticated pre-processing techniques to be developed. To the document reader, the content structure is mostly presented by visual means. Therefore, we propose a technique for the discovery of the logical document structure based on the analysis of various visual properties of the document such as the page layout or text properties. This technique is currently being tested and some promising preliminary results are available.
