Abstract
Non-pen stroke data, e.g. barcode data or keyboard data, can be transferred through a transfer system which is formatted specifically for the transfer of pen stroke data, by coding the non-pen stroke data as pen stroke data. The non-pen stroke data may particularly be coded as pen strokes in a position area which is not used for the transfer of ordinary pen strokes, e.g. a margin area.
Claims14
A method at the sender side of a transfer system designed for the transfer of pen stroke data, comprising
- receiving non-pen stroke data;
- coding the non-pen stroke data as pen stroke data using a predetermined reversible coding process before transferring the pen-stroke coded non-pen stroke data via the transfer system to a receiving unit.
A method at the receiving side of a transfer system designed for the transfer of pen stroke data, comprising
- receiving pen stroke data from the transfer system;
- and
- decoding non-pen stroke data from the pen stroke data using a predetermined decoding process.
