A print media has a visible image and a plurality of invisible encodements comprising data printed over it in a hierarchy order, wherein the encodement of the highest order represents a replacement or edited version of the data of lower order encodements. Apparatus and methods provide effectively editing of an existing invisible encodement printed on media with a material sensitive to a first light wavelength by printing an edited or replacement encodement over it with a material sensitive to a second light wavelength of higher order in the hierarchy. Apparatus and methods also provide for selectively reading the highest order encodement, all of the encodements or selected ones of the encodements.

Method and apparatus for editing and reading edited invisible encodements on media

A camera, adapted for recording individual sound files to be re-recorded onto associated photographic prints, includes an operator interface for pre-selecting photographic print characteristics which would affect the amount of recording time available on an associated photographic print. An audio memory is adapted to store sound files to be re-recorded onto associated photographic prints. An indicator is adapted to provide an operator-recognizable indication of recording time available as a function of print characteristics pre-selected by an operator. The print characteristics may include a print's two-dimensional surface area, a print's shape, a sound file's type or sound quality.

A keyed data-and-print album page has a receiver having an array of image spaces, a plurality of invisible printed encodements, and a visible key. The image spaces each have a visible boundary. The encodements each have a margin. The encodements each at least partially overlap at least one of the image spaces. The margins are each in registration with at least one of the boundaries. The key indicates the relative geometry of the boundaries of the visible image spaces and the margins of the invisible encodements.
