System for printing interactive documents
First Claim
1. A system for printing a second document by interacting with a first document, said system comprising:
- a first document including an interface, the interface including visible textual information and first coded data in the form of a plurality of tags, each tag defining unique coded data identifying the first document and a position of that tag on the first document;
a handheld optically imaging sensor, which, when the sensor is placed by the user into an operative position relative to the interface to designate at least some of the textual information, generates indicating data indicative of the position of the sensor relative to the first document using at least some of the sensed coded data; and
a printer for printing the second document in response to interpretation of the indicating by a computer system, the second printed document including visible textual information and second coded data in the form of a plurality of tags, each tag defining unique coded data identifying the second document and a position of that tag on the second document.

Abstract
A system for printing a second document by interacting with a first document. The system includes: a first document having visible textual information and first coded data; a handheld optically imaging sensor which generates indicating data indicative of the position of the sensor relative to the first document using sensed coded data; and a printer for printing the second document in response to interpretation of the indicating data by a computer system. The second printed document includes visible textual information and second coded data in the form of a plurality of tags, each tag defining unique coded data identifying the second document and a position of that tag on the second document.
