Document database preparation is a very time-consuming job and usually requires the involvement of many people. Any database is prone to having errors however carefully it was constructed. To assure the high quality of the document image database, a carefully planned implementation methodology is absolutely needed. In this paper, an implementation methodology that we employed to produce the UW English Document Image Database I is described. The paper also discusses how to estimate the distribution of errors contained in a database based on a double-data entry/double verification procedure.
