Abstract
In an approach, a processor identifies a plurality of text separators in a borderless table, a text separator of the plurality of text separators defining a non-text region between two consecutive text lines in the borderless table. A processor classifies the plurality of text separators into a number of target clusters comprised in a target group based on property information related to the plurality of text separators, the number of target clusters corresponding to a number of separator types. A processor provides indication information to indicate respective separator types of the plurality of text separators based on a result of the classifying.
