A system for producing a raster image derived from coded and non-coded portions of a hybrid data structure from an input bitmap including (1) a data processing apparatus, (2) a recognizer which performs recognition on an input bitmap to the data processing apparatus to detect identifiable objects within the input bitmap, (3) a mechanism for producing a hybrid data structure including coded data corresponding to the identifiable objects and non-coded data derived from portions of the input bitmap which do not correspond to the identifiable objects, and (4) an output device capable of developing a visually perceptible raster image derived from the hybrid data structure. The raster image includes raster images of the identifiable objects and raster images derived from portions of the input bitmap that do not correspond to the identifiable objects. The invention includes a method for producing a hybrid data structure for a bitmap of an image having the steps of: (1) inputting a signal comprising a bitmap into a digital processing apparatus, (2) partitioning the bitmap into a hierarchy of lexical units, (3) assigning labels to a label list for each lexical unit of a predetermined hierarchical level, where labels in the label list have an associated confidence level, and (4) storing each lexical unit in a hybrid data structure as either an identifiable object or a non-identifiable object.

A system for producing a raster image derived from a hybrid data structure including coded and non-coded portions from an input bitmap, the system comprising: (a) a data processing apparatus; (b) means for performing recognition on an input bitmap that has been entered into said data processing apparatus to detect identifiable objects within said input bitmap, said means for performing recognition including: (i) means for comparing each of said identifiable objects with a portion of said input bitmap corresponding to said identifiable object; and (ii) means for adjusting the size of said identifiable object if said identifiable object is within a threshold size of said corresponding input bitmap portion; (c) means for creating a hybrid data structure including coded portions corresponding to said identifiable objects and non-coded portions derived from portions of said input bitmap which do not correspond to said identifiable objects; and (d) an output device for developing a visually perceptible raster image from said hybrid data structure that includes coded images of said identifiable objects and non-coded images of said non-identifiable portions of said input bitmap.
