Embodiment Construction
[0047] Figure 1 shows a system 100 in which the present invention may be applied. The system comprises a computer unit, such as a personal computer 103, which conventionally has a display 104 and a keyboard 105. The personal computer 103 is connected to a printer unit 106 via, say, a cable 107 . This system is used to print a position-coding pattern on a piece of paper. At the same time as the position-coding pattern is printed, other information can also be printed on the sheet of paper.
[0048] FIG. 2 shows a position-coding pattern of the first type printed onto a sheet of paper 200 . In this pattern, dots of different sizes are used to encode different symbol values. For example, a large dot 202 can be encoded as a logic "1" and a small dot 201 can be encoded as a logic "0". By optically detecting the symbol value in an area 203 having a certain minimum size, the position of this area in the overall pattern and thus on the sheet 200 can be unambiguously determined.
