Re: [WM]: an attack to text watermarking



Dear Stephen Chou,

Usually, the text watermarking is performed by modified the structure of the original document, such as reassigning the distance among words, lines, etc. since you in no way know the information of the original document. The transcribed document by an attacker often include the watermark because you don't know how to rewrite the document to destroy the watermark. In other words, if the transcribed document manually is published somewhere, the copyright owner may extract the hidden messages from the document. As a result, the transcribed document will be identified as the illegal.

Dear all,
I have one basic question to text watermarking.

A document is watermarked before publication. if the watermarked doc is transcribed manually by a person, that is, he uses a pen to
write down the document into a paper, he may publish the transcribed paper for his sake. I am wondering the watermarking tech can
resist such an attack?

Thanks
