System for printing coded data providing interaction with computer software
First Claim
1. A system for enabling user interaction with computer software, the system including a printer for:
- receiving print data;
printing a form, using the print data, by printing;
information related to at least one interactive element; and
,coded data at least partially indicative of the at least one interactive element, the coded data being coincident with the information;
receiving indicating data from a sensing device, the sensing device, when placed in an operative position relative to the information, sensing the coincident coded data and generating the indicating data using the sensed coded data, the indicating data being at least partially indicative of the at least one interactive element; and
,transferring the indicating data to a computer system to allow the interaction to be interpreted,wherein the coded data is at least partially indicative of an identity, and wherein the computer system is for;
determining, using the indicating data, the identity;
determining, using the identity, a page description; and
,identifying, using the page description, the at least one interactive element.

Abstract
A system for enabling user interaction with computer software. The system includes a printer for receiving print data, printing a form, using the print data, with information related to an interactive element coincident with coded data indicative of the interactive element, receiving indicating data from a sensing device which is generated by the sensing device sensing the coincident coded data so as to be indicative of the interactive element, and transfer the indicating data to a computer system to allow the interaction to be interpreted. The coded data is indicative of an identity. The computer system determines, using the indicating data, the identity, determines, using the identity, a page description, and identifies, using the page description, the interactive element.
