Hi. I will be doing an autocropping of images. was it possible to do rgb->grayscale->binary+autocropping without any image processing in between? example like adjusting of brightness, morph operation? if so, why? thanks!

There are some images that can be cropped that way. There are others that cannot. For example one might have a page that has both text that is black on white, and text that is white on black.

I didn't even know what her question meant. What does black-on-white or white-on-black have to do with whether you can autocrop or do those 3 operations without any other image processing in between? Nothing. I think there's some implied question that she never asked, like "Look at my image...how can I segment out the characters and do OCR on them?" - but she didn't ask that, or even provide an image for us to look at. Maybe this would help: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/6200-tutorial-how-to-ask-a-question-on-answers-and-get-a-fast-answer

My Magic 8-Ball had a spare question left ;-)

Yes you can do just those operations, with no additional image processing in between:
grayImage = rgb2gray(rgbImage);
binaryImage = grayImage > thresholdValue;
croppedImage = binaryImage(row1:row2, column1:column2);
There, that's proof. I don't see that any additional explanation as to "Why?" is needed since it's rather self explanatory.

Depends on how you define manually and automatic. Either way a threshold has to be defined somehow. You can either do it by setting some value like
thresholdValue = 51;
or you can get it from some function like im2bw where you passed it .2, which is 0.2*255 = 51. Either way you're specifying 51 as the threshold. You can use graythresh() if you want it to be some value that varies depending on the image histogram. Again, it all comes down to what YOU define as manual versus automatic.

If one was trying to OCR a badly photocopied page that had borders that went grey (or even black), then this simple processing might not be sufficient.
