Computer system for generating a second mail item in response to a first mail item
First Claim
1. A computer system for generating a second mail item in response to a first mail item, the first mail item comprising a first printed interface surface having first visible information and a collection of first coded data tags printed thereon, each first tag identifying an identity of the first mail item and a position of the tag on the first surface, the computer system being configured for:
- receiving indicating data from an optically imaging pen, the indicating data including data regarding the identity of the mail item and data regarding a position of a nib of the pen relative to the printed surface, the pen generating the indicating data using at least some of the first coded data; and
generating the second mail item using the indicating data from the pen, said second mail item comprising a second printed interface surface having second visible information and a collection of second coded data tags printed thereon, each second tag identifying an identity of the second mail item and a position of the tag on the second surface.

Abstract
A computer system for generating a second mail item in response to a first mail item is provided. The first mail item comprises a printed interface surface having visible information and coded data disposed thereon. The coded data is indicative of the identity of the first mail item and of a plurality of map references of the surface. The computer system is configured for: (a) receiving indicating data from an optically imaging sensing device, the indicating data including data regarding the identity of the mail item and data regarding a position of the sensing device relative to the surface, the sensing device generating the indicating data using at least some of the coded data; and (b) generating the second mail item using the indicating data from the sensing device.
