1. A system for retrieving contact details using a print medium, the system comprising:

  • a database for storing contact details referenced by print media identifiers and two-dimensional positions on the print medium identified by the print media identifiers;

    a sensor module for sensing data encoded on a surface of the print medium, the data sensed by the sensor module encoding at least;

    a print media identifier which uniquely identifies the print medium; and

    a two-dimensional position of the sensor module with respect to the surface of the print medium; and

    a processor networked with the sensor module and database for;

    determining from the data sensed by the sensor module the print media identifier and the two-dimensional position of the sensor module relative to the surface of the print medium; and

    retrieving the contact details referenced by the print media identifier and the two-dimensional position of the sensor module from the database.
