The memory stores executable components which when direct the system to perform the following: obtain at least one page image of reflowable textual content and identify at least one paragraph of textual content. Thereafter, for each identified paragraph, a plurality of paragraph metrics regarding the identified paragraph is determined. Based on the paragraph metrics, similarly formed paragraphs are clustered.
