One of the first application domains for computer science was Optical Character Recognition. At that time, it was expected that a machine would quickly be able to read any document. History has proven that the task was more difficult than that. This chapter explores the history of the document analysis and recognition domain, from OCR to page analysis and on to the open problems which are still to be completely dealt with.
