High-capacity data hiding in text documents

چکیده
In today’s digital world securing different forms of content is very important in terms of protecting copyright and verifying authenticity. One example is watermarking of digital audio and images. We believe that a marking scheme analogous to digital watermarking but for documents is very important. In this paper we describe the use of laser amplitude modulation in electrophotographic printers to embed information in a text document. In particular we describe an embedding and detection process which has the capability to embed 14 bits into characters that have a left vertical edge. For a typical 12 point document this translates to approximately 12000 bits per page.

High capacity steganography tool for Arabic text using 'Kashida'
Steganography is the ability to hide secret information in a cover-media such as sound, pictures and text. A new approach is proposed to hide a secret into Arabic text cover media using "Kashida", an Arabic extension character. The proposed approach is an attempt to maximize the use of "Kashida" to hide more information in Arabic text cover-media. To approach this, some algorithms have been des...
متن کاملData Hiding Capacity and Embedding Techniques for Printed Text Documents
In previous publications we have demonstrated the use of laser intensity modulation to embed information in halftone and text documents. In those experiments we were able to embed and correctly decode 33 bits in a 12 point page of printed text. In this paper we will present our current work on developing a channel model for a text document. This model will allow us to define capacity bounds for...
متن کاملHigh Capacity Image Data Hiding of Scanned Text Documents Using Improved Quadtree
In this paper, an effective method was introduced to steganography of text document in the host image. In the available steganography methods, the message has a random form. Therefore, the embedding capacity is generally low. In the proposed method, the main underlying idea was the sparse property of scanned documents. The scanned documents were converted from gray-level form to binary values b...

An optimized method for data hiding into a digital color image in spatial domainis provided. The graph coloring theory with different color numbers is applied. To enhance thesecurity of this method, block correlations method in an image is used. Experimental results showthat with the same PSNR, the capacity is improved by %8, and also security has increased in themethod compared with other meth...
متن کاملText data-hiding for digital and printed documents: theoretical and practical considerations
In this paper, we propose a new theoretical framework for the data-hiding problem of digital and printed text documents. We explain how this problem can be seen as an instance of the well-known Gel’fand-Pinsker problem. The main idea for this interpretation is to consider a text character as a data structure consisting of multiple quantifiable features such as shape, position, orientation, size...
