Abstract

We present a sketch-based system for proofreading documents. The gestures and words drawn by the proofreader on a document view are translated into high-level actions that represent editions such as replace, insert, delete and others. Our particular system is not restricted to a predefined alphabet of gestures. Instead, any symbol can be employed for striking out words or drawing inserts. This provides more flexibility and adaptability to the user. In contrast to other similar works, our interface integrates interpretation and recognition of handwritten words. The described system has been implemented for proofreading digital documents on screen but also for paper documents printed on Anoto paper and annotated using a digital pen.
