Abstract
The invention comprises an apparatus and method of use thereof for processing a machine produced emulated handwritten document prepared on a marking surface, comprising the steps of: receiving a print job order; digitally generating a reference image of the print job order; machine plotting with a plotting pen and a downward force of one-half to forty ounces applied to said plotting pen an indentation trail to form input text on the marking surface; digitally imaging the input text on the marking surface to form an actual image; and in a quality control step, digitally comparing the reference image to the actual image prior to insertion of the print job order into an envelope.
Claims14
A method for processing a machine produced emulated handwritten document prepared on a marking surface, comprising the steps of:
- receiving a print job order;
- digitally generating a reference image of the print job order;
- machine plotting with a plotting pen and a downward force of one-half to forty ounces applied to said plotting pen an indentation trail to form input text on the marking surface;
- digitally imaging the input text on the marking surface to form an actual image;
- in a quality control step, digitally comparing the reference image to the actual image prior to insertion of the print job order into an envelope;
- digitally presenting a message to generate a set of images corresponding to a set of at least two documents corresponding to a human readable job number;
- and
- digitally confirming that elements of said set of images correspond to the print job order.
A method for processing a machine produced emulated handwritten document prepared on a marking surface, comprising the steps of:
- receiving a print job order;
- digitally generating a reference image of the print job order;
- machine plotting with a plotting pen and a downward force of one-half to forty ounces applied to said plotting pen an indentation trail to form input text on the marking surface;
- digitally imaging the input text on the marking surface to form an actual image;
- in a quality control step, digitally comparing the reference image to the actual image prior to insertion of the print job order into an envelope;
- said step of digitally generating further comprising the step of saving the reference image as a reference scalable vector graphic file;
- said step of digitally imaging further comprising the step of saving the actual image as an actual scalable vector graphic file;
- comparing at least a first positional grouping of the reference scalable vector graphic file to the actual scalable vector graphic file;
- and
- comparing at least a second positional grouping of the reference scalable vector graphic file to the actual scalable vector graphic file.
