Abstract
Apparatus and method for reproduction of an original document wherein image information on the document is selected by character-coding to designate the information for treatment according to one or more particular selective editing or machine control functions. Each character code is predefinable by the user by marking one or more code definition sheets. The documents and code definition sheets are placed in a document handler and passed over a scanner that is sensitive to the image information, the character coding, and the markings on the code definition sheets. The sensed image information is processed according to a determination of the desired functions. A marking engine then provides hard copy reproductions of the original documents from the processed image information.
