The rapid progress in the transfer of information and its availability are the reasons behind the widespread use of the Internet. Document images are the most complicated and challenging category among various forms of digital data to which watermarking can be applied for its security and authentication. Watermarking of the document image is a very difficult task, since these images have very limited redundancy. Because of this factor there has been very little research in this area. A comprehensive research should be carried out to ensure the effective assessment, review as well as implementation of document image watermarking techniques. This paper reviews the existing document image watermarking by considering different evaluation parameters. Based on this review, a variety of challenges and directions have been prescribed for the development of effective watermarking techniques for document images.
