IMPROVED HANDWRITTEN-DATA-PROCESSING DEVICE AND INSTALLATION, WHICH PROVIDE A CERTIFIED DATA BACK-UP WITH LINKS

摘要

The invention relates to an improved handwritten-data-processing device and installation, which provide a certified data back-up with links. According to the invention, the data processing device comprises processing means ( 10 ) which are designed to address instructions to a display device ( 6 ), such as a PDA, said instructions requiring the display of at least one part of the primary handwritten data which is captured by recognition means ( 5 ) after being entered by a user in one zone ( 4 ) of a support ( 3 ). The aforementioned processing means ( 10 ) are also designed to associate (i) a timestamp, which represents the moment of data entry or association, and (ii) an identifier, which represents the zone ( 4 ), with the primary data and with the processing operators and/or secondary data which, at the user's command, are associated using interaction means ( 8 ) with at least some of the primary data displayed by the display device ( 6 ). Finally, when primary or secondary data designating external data which are stored, for example, in a database ( 9 ), are activated by the interaction means ( 8 ), the above-mentioned processing means ( 10 ) are designed to access said database such that the external data can be displayed by the display device ( 6 ).
