Abstract
An information processing method in which after various sorts of information such as voice, image, and moving picture are printed as embedding information on a printing medium such as paper, the embedding information is scanned to reproduce the embedding information in an optimum form thereof. In the information processing method, original information is inputted from an input apparatus, attribute information of the original information is inputted, the original information is combined with the attribute information in accordance with a correspondence relationship therebetween to thereby produce information to be embedded, embedding information is produced from the information to be embedded, the embedding information is printed on a recording medium, the embedding information is read-scanned to thereby input image information, the embedding information is recognized from the inputted image information, the recognized embedding information is resolved into the original information and the attribute information so as to determine an output apparatus used to reproduce the original information in accordance with the attribute information corresponding thereto, and the original informa…
