A system can merge text bounding boxes such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR) bounding boxes. A document can comprise a plurality of the text bounding boxes. Distance thresholds between text bounding boxes can be utilized for comparison against a distance threshold. Distance thresholds can vary depending on context information associated with the document. In response to a determination that text bounding boxes satisfy the distance threshold, the text bounding boxes can be assigned to a bounding box group.
