Abstract
In the present invention information is first defined as a complete description of the meaning of the content, in addition to the required layout of the characters, words, delivery addresses or images of the entire delivery surface, which contains the delivery addresses, as sample elements. The images of the sample elements belonging to the defined reference information are then generated with the aid of type libraries for the defined character fonts and languages and said images are then stored, after having been assigned to the reference information, in the form of a pixel representation for the sample. The images of the sample elements that have been generated in the previous step are subsequently varied by means of known image processing algorithms to create at least one statistical variation corresponding to the previously collected, grouped deliveries, according to the defined sample scope.
