 ===== Efficient Conversion of Digital Documents to Multilayer Raster Formats =====
+//Abstract//:
+How can we turn the description of a digital (i.e.,
+electronically produced) document into something efficient for
+multilayer raster formats? It is first shown that a
+foreground/background segmentation without overlapping
+foreground components can be more efficient for viewing
+or printing. Then, a new algorithm that prevents overlaps
+between foreground components while optimizing both the
+document quality and compression ratio is derived from the
+Minimum Description Length (MDL) criterion. This
+algorithm makes the DjVu compression format significantly
+more efficient on electronically produced documents.
+Comparisons with other formats are provided.
