To reduce errors introduced by a scanner, an unmarked, digital master document may be generated and stored in digital form so that subsequent scanning of the document is unnecessary to place it in digital form for comparison to a marked version of the document. Additionally, regions or fields, rather than the entire digital master document, may be individually created, stored, and subsequently used for comparison to corresponding portions of a marked version. Further, test targets or patterns may be inserted into the content of a digital master document. Characteristics of image quality degeneration and distortion can be extracted from printed versions of the test targets or patterns and used to effect closed loop control to digitally reduce image quality degeneration caused by the scanner.
