摘要:
A method for improving the readability of composite images by determining available areas on a document where no text or graphics will be printed in visible ink and printing one or more 2-D bar code with invisible ink at a size pre-determined based on the available areas. The one or more auxiliary 2-D bar codes are printed in luminescent ink, either invisible or lightly colored when viewed under white light.

A postage metering system includes a host processor having a printer coupled thereto. A postal security device (PSD) is coupled to the host processor. The PSD includes first unique identification, first postal value storage and first digital signature generator. The host processor can request and obtain from the PSD first evidence of postage payment to be printed by the printer. The host processor can also request and obtain from a remote data center second evidence of postage payment to be printed by the printer. For each metering transaction to be printed by the printer, the host processor initiates the request for one of the first and second evidences of postage payment. In one embodiment the host processor is a general purpose computer.

摘要:
A system and method for postage metering provides a plurality of client modules on a network. A local postage security device (PSD) is coupled to a first one of the client modules and a remote PSD is coupled to a second one of the client modules. The local and remote PSDs include respectively first and second unique identification, postal value storage and digital signature generator. The first client module is connected to a remote data center that includes third unique identification, third postal value storage and a third digital signature generator. The first client module selectively requests one of a first evidence of postage payment from the local PSD, a second, evidence of postage payment from the remote PSD and a third evidence of postage payment from the data center. The first client module includes a printer for printing the selected one of the first, second and third evidences of postage payment on a mailpiece.
