An optical reader that is configured for classifying an image. The optical reader includes an image analysis component that is configured for classifying the image by evaluating a result of attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol, and configured for classifying the image as an image including a graphic symbol if and when attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is successful, and configured for classifying the image as an image excluding a graphic symbol if and when attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is unsuccessful.
What is claimed is: 1. An optical reader that is configured for classifying an image, comprising: a color imaging assembly that is configured for obtaining a representation of an image in a digital format; and an image analysis component that is configured for classifying the image by evaluating a
What is claimed is: 1. An optical reader that is configured for classifying an image, comprising: a color imaging assembly that is configured for obtaining a representation of an image in a digital format; and an image analysis component that is configured for classifying the image by evaluating a result of attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol, and configured for classifying said image as an image including a graphic symbol if attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is successful, and configured for classifying said image as an image excluding a graphic symbol if attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is unsuccessful. 2. The optical reader of claim 1, wherein classifying by attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol includes searching for high energy regions in the image. 3. The optical reader of claim 2, wherein high energy regions include black-white transitions. 4. The optical reader of claim 1, wherein attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol includes attempting to decode said portion of the image as a bar code symbol. 5. The optical reader of claim 4, wherein if said bar code symbol represents a menu, then if attempting to decode said bar code symbol is successful, then a menu that corresponds to a result of decoding of said bar code symbol is executed. 6. The optical reader of claim 4, wherein if said bar code symbol represents data, then if attempting to decode said bar code symbol is successful, then data that corresponds to a result of decoding said bar code symbol is output to a display. 7. The optical reader of claim 4, wherein if attempting to decode said bar code symbol is unsuccessful, then attempting to process a portion of the image as a graphical symbol further includes attempting to process said portion of said image as an optical character recognition (OCR) symbol. 8. The optical reader of claim 7, wherein if attempting to process said portion of said image as an optical character recognition symbol is successful, then a representation of said processed optical character recognition symbol is stored into a memory. 9. The optical reader of claim 7, wherein if attempting to process said portion of said image as an optical character recognition symbol is unsuccessful, then attempting to process a portion of the image as a graphical symbol further includes attempting to recognize said portion of said image as text. 10. The optical reader of claim 9, wherein attempting to recognize said portion of said image as text is successful, then said portion of said image is cropped and stored. 11. The optical reader of claim 10, wherein said portion of said image is further compressed after being cropped and before being stored. 12. The optical reader of claim 9, wherein attempting to recognize said portion of said image as text is unsuccessful, then attempting to process a portion of said image as a graphical symbol further includes attempting to recognize said portion of said image as a signature. 13. The optical reader of claim 12, wherein if attempting to recognize said portion of said image as a signature is successful, then said portion of said image is cropped and stored. 14. The optical reader of claim 12, wherein said portion of said image is further compressed after being cropped and before being stored. 15. The optical reader of claim 12, wherein if attempting to recognize said portion of said image as a signature is unsuccessful, then said image is classified as excluding a graphical symbol. 16. The optical reader of claim 13, wherein attempting to process a portion of the image as a graphical symbol further includes attempting to verify said signature. 17. The optical reader of claim 1 wherein attempting to process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is unsuccessful, then said image is classified as an image excluding a graphic symbol. 18. The optical reader of claim 1 wherein attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is successful if at least one of attempting to decode a bar code symbol, attempting to process a OCR symbol, attempting to recognize text and attempting to recognize a signature, are successful. 19. The optical reader of claim 16 wherein said image is associated with another image that is subsequently captured. 20. A method for employing an optical reader to classify an image, the method comprising the steps of: providing an optical reader; configuring the optical reader to obtain a representation of an image in a digital format; configuring the optical reader to classify the image by attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol; and wherein if attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is successful, then classifying the image as an image including a graphic symbol; and wherein if attempting to locate and process a portion of the image as graphical symbol is unsuccessful, then classifying the image as an image excluding a graphic symbol.
