TWO-DIMENSIONAL CODE PATTERN, TWO-DIMENSIONAL CODE GENERATING METHOD, TWO-DIMENSIONAL CODE GENERATOR AND PRINTING MEDIUM

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a two-dimensional code pattern capable of reflecting information on an original electronic document by accurately acquiring the information added with handwriting to a document printed on a print document 21 by utilizing various handwriting input devices without damaging the layout of the document and without any cost increase. PSOLUTION: In a two-dimensional code formed by arranging a plurality of two-dimensional codes having information unique to a document and position information of the document at a portion of the print document 21 on which the document is printed or the entire print document 21, a first two-dimensional code 22 to be formed on the print document 21 and a second two-dimensional code 41 different from the first two-dimensional code 22 to be formed on a predetermined area 40 of the print document 21 are formed. Consequently, not only a pen type input coordinate device but also a pad type coordinate input device, an MFP and the like which perform handwriting input by using dot patterns in the conventional manner can perform handwriting input by using a barcode.
