First Claim
1. A method comprising the steps of:
- receiving by a processor first indicating data identifying a page identity of a first interactive document and one or more locations on the first interactive document;
determining, by the processor using the page identity, a network address of a server storing a first page description, the first page description describing a relationship between visual elements and positions on the first interactive document;
retrieving by the processor from the network address, using the one or more locations on the first interactive document, a second page description, the second page description describing a relationship between visual elements and positions on a second interactive document; and
controlling by the processor a print engine to print visible elements and invisible coded data tags to provide the second interactive document, each coded data tag encoding a page identity of the second interactive document and location of the coded data tag on the second interactive document.

Abstract
A method is disclosed which produces a second interactive document. A processor receives indicating data identifying a page identity of a first interactive document and locations on the first interactive document. The processor uses the page identity to identify a network address of a server storing a first page description which describes a relationship between visual elements and positions on the first interactive document. The processor then retrieves from the network address, using the locations on the first interactive document, a second page description which describes a relationship between visual elements and positions on the second interactive document. Finally a print engine is controlled to print visible elements and invisible coded data tags to provide the second interactive document. Each coded data tag encodes a page identity of the second interactive document and location of the coded data tag on the second interactive document.
