A method of enhancing electronic documents received from a plurality of users by a document analysis system for improving automatic recognition and classification of the received electronic documents, is provided. For each page of a received electronic document, the method filters the page to infer binarized-background artifacts resulting from the binarization of the original grayscale or color image source document and which reside in the vicinity of binarized text and binarized image features in the page, so that the binarized text and binarized images may be distinguished from the binarized-background artifacts and extracted from the document. The method then uses the extracted features from the filtered document to automatically recognized and classify a document into a document category.
