Abstract

A system for generating documents. A text file representing a document is encoded using a marking code. This marking code is encoded into the document by altering elements of the contents of the text file. Preferably the spaces between words are altered to be short and long spaces. The marked version therefore indicates, in an encoded fashion, the marking code that is applied.
