1. A method for the selective application of automatic image enhancements, comprising: receiving an original image on a page; selecting at least one image from among a plurality of images on said page to be evaluated using a graphical user interface; evaluating said at least one image based on at least one characteristic of said at least one image, wherein said at least one image corresponds to a page of data; determining if said at least one image comprises at least one visible background image, at least one visible watermark image, or at least one subject image according to said evaluation of said at least one image based on said at least one characteristic of said at least one image; and thereafter determining an application or non-application of an automatic image enhancement to said at least one visible background image, said at least one visible watermark image, or said at least one subject image in order to eliminate a need for a user to manually indicate which images should be subject to an automated image enhancement and thereby lower the operational costs associated with processing of said at least one image.
