Figure 7 illustrates the user interfaceof this tool. In theannotationprocess,wecollect the following information for each text rectangle. • position: x,y,widthandheight. • content: text strings, textcolor,backgroundcolor,backgroundtype(transparent,opaque). • Interval: apparition intervalof the textline (Frame_S(Start),Frame_E(End)). Note thata text rectanglecan includemultiple lines if theyshare thesamefont, colorandsize, andif theyarenot far fromeachother.
