System for performing computer-based operations
First Claim
1. A system for performing computer-based operations, the system comprising:
- a computer system configured for;
receiving a print request for printing a document;
allocating and retrieving a unique document identifier for said document upon receipt of said print request; and
associating the document identifier with a description of the document, the description associating at least one instruction with one or more positions in the document;
a printer for printing the document containing visible information and coded data tags on a surface simultaneously, each coded data tag encoding position on the surface and each coded data tag further identifying the document identifier; and
an optically imaging pen for sensing at least one coded data tag during handwritten input on the document and for generating a signal indicative of the sensed coded data tag;
wherein the computer system is further configured for;
receiving the signal from the pen;
determining the document identifier and the position;
retrieving the description associated with the document identifier; and
relating the position to the at least one instruction using the retrieved description and executing the at least one instruction.

Abstract
A system for performing computer-based operations is disclosed. The system includes a printer for printing visible information and coded data tags on a surface substantially simultaneously. Each coded data tag encodes a region identifier for uniquely identifying a description of a region on the surface, and a position in the region. The description associates at least one instruction with one or more positions in the region. The system further includes a sensor for sensing at least one coded data tag and for generating a signal indicative of the sensed coded data tag. A computer system receives the signal, determines the region identifier and the position, relates the position to the at least one instruction using the description, and executes the at least one instruction.
