1. An apparatus for determining a rotation angle of text within an image, the apparatus comprising: circuitry configured to compute, for each object of a plurality of objects included in the text, a distance to a closest neighboring object, compute an average distance of the distances to the closest neighboring objects, determine a ratio between the average distance and an average font stroke width, the average font stroke width being an average of a font stroke width of each of the plurality of objects, and determine the rotation angle of the text by comparing the ratio to a threshold value.
