Abstract

Method, apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium for embedding and extracting a watermark in a text document using digital watermarking processes is disclosed. When the text document is watermarked, the following steps are performed. The pages of the text document are transformed into corresponding images. Then, the margins on each of the images are detected and cropped to generate the cropped images. The cropped images are segmented into blocks among which some blocks are selected based on content of each block. The watermark is embedded in the selected blocks using a digital watermarking process. When the watermark from the watermarked text document is extracted, the watermark-embedding process is referred to determine the block information, for selecting each block of a watermarked text document, from where the watermark needs to be extracted.
