Abstract: Information Hiding（IH） is an important research direction of information security. IH mainly researches how to embed secret information into carriers, in order to achieve the objectives of secure communication, watermarking, and so on. This paper analyzes the current status of IH based on text and its shortcomings. A novel information hiding algorithm based on substitution of different forms of Chinese characters is proposed. It splits the secret information, and then embeds the sector information into the carrier text by explanation. The sector length can be adjusted according to application requirements. The highest embedding rate of the algorithm is about 2%. In addition, this algorithm can resist traditional attacking method such as re-layout.
