Abstract
A compound plotting apparatus for rapidly producing an annotated design comprises a symbol printing device such as a matrix printer for printing an annotation directly on a worksheet or on a label which is deposited on the worksheet and a design line drawing device such as a pen and actuator assembly. Both devices are mounted on a carriage translatable over a worksheet supporting surface. A controller is programmed to automatically select and activate the device more suitable to produce a type of mark, the symbol printing device to print annotations on the worksheet or on the label as the case may be and the design line drawing device to draw design lines on the worksheet.
