Abstract
A computerized method and system for adding distortions to a computer-generated image of a document stored in an image file. An original computer-generated image file is selected and is processed to generate one or more distorted image files for each original computer-generated image file by selecting one or more augmentation modules from a set of augmentation modules to form an augmentation sub-system. The original computer-generated image file is processed with the augmentation sub-system to generate an augmented image file by altering the original computer-generated image file to add distortions that simulate distortions introduced during scanning of a paper-based representation of a document represented in the original computer-generated image file.
