Abstract
The discrimination system of the cryptic graph-text document and manufacturing method thereof is to digitize and decompose the cryptic document and fix them onto the surfaces of the digital reader and printed sheet, which present themselves as the cryptic documents. An array of numerous miniaturized lenses with specific focal lengths is distributed on the surface of the reader. When the printed sheet is covered with a specific digital reader at a specific location, the corresponding document is revealed and presents as the original document and alternating the darkness of the pattern from heavy to light and from invisible to visible gradually while changing the visual angle. Several digital readers are matched to one printed sheet, resulting in different cryptic patterns accordingly. The discrimination system is intuitive, simple and speedy, and is difficult to imitate. This technique is good for making licenses, bills, money notes, stamps, packages of goods, and all others that require anti-counterfeiting marks attached.
