The widespread adoption of smartphones has introduced new challenges to document copyright protection, prompting the emergence of Screen-Shooting Resilient Document Watermarking (SSRDW) technology. In recent years, underpainting-based SSRDW techniques have proven to be highly effective. However, after careful study, we find that existing methods fail to simultaneously meet four essential criteria for SSRDW: high imperceptibility, strong
robustness, adaptability to text processing, and high efficiency. In this paper, we introduce an enhanced underpainting-based SSRDW approach capable of satisfying all four requirements. Our approach enhances imperceptibility by employing underpainting embedding methods independent of text content. Additionally, we introduce a fast resynchronization mechanism to improve time efficiency. Furthermore, we propose an enhanced watermark extraction method that enhances robustness and enables watermark retrieval even in scenarios involving text processing. Extensive experimental validation underscores the superior performance of our enhanced SSRDW method.
