  • Abstract
    In this paper, two techniques are presented, appropriate to detect the text main body size in a document image. One measures it directly, while the other estimates the baselines first. Both are segmentation free. Experimental results are presented over a collection of handwritten text, as well as for a small collection of 10 printed document images, in order to give more objective results.
