          Appeal No. 1998-0643                                                        
          Application 08/196,028                                                      

                    (b) locating the connected symbols within the second              
               image;                                                                 
                    (c) identifying boundaries about each group of                    
               connected symbols within the second image, so as to                    
               segment the second image by word objects; and                          
                    (d) applying the boundaries identified in step (c),               
               to the first image to group the data associated with each              
               word object, thereby isolating the word object within the              
               data defining the first image.
