摘要： A system and method are disclosed for enabling the technique of deferred processing of OCR scanned mail to be compatible with existing techniques for mechanical sortation of mail that use standard sort barcode formats which are common to a given destination postal system. This enables deferred OCR processed mail to be sorted on an unsegregated basis along with other types of mail which have not been processed by the deferred OCR technique. This allows the OCR encoded mail to be processed along with other types of encoded mail during standard sort barcode that has been imprinted using prior technology such as OCR or manual code desks.
