Text in a raster image is not the same as the same text in a text file. To convert rasterised text to computer text OCR is needed. The quality of current systems isn't that great.

The point of using layers is that you can combine them into one image but still make changes to the individual components. This is a very powerful tool mostly used by graphics experts but it's useful even for some simple tasks.
 
Read the 5 page paper [[Media:lossless_re-enconfig_of_jpeg_images.pdf|Lossless Re-encoding of JPEG Images Using Block-adaptive Intra Prediction (Matsuda et al, 2008)]]. It's quite complicated but see how much useful information you can extract from it without spending a month learning the math.
