Perceptually-supported image editing of text and graphics

This extended abstract reprises our UIST '03 paper on "Perceptually-Supported Image Editing of Text and Graphics." We introduce a novel image editing program, called ScanScribe, that emphasizes easy selection and manipulation of material found in informal, casual documents such as sketches, handwritten notes, whiteboard images, screen snapshots, and scanned documents.
