    Abstract: An image of a sample print printed to obtain parameters is picked up by using "a parameter obtaining device" that meets the standards of an instrument for the invention of "the electronic scrap system. " Then, the picked-up image is captured by a DTP system, and color data of a needed position are imported to a parameter DB. Thereby, parameters for simulation to be used in an invisible code printing support system can be easily inputted. Use of this method eliminates the necessity of figuring out parameters through experiments and the like, and of inputting these parameters as numerical values. In addition, since this method uses a physical medium and inks to be actually used, as they are, their optical characteristics, an influence of a blue component of invisible light emitted from an ultraviolet LED, and the like can be inputted all together as a picked-up image. Accordingly, it becomes possible to input parameters capable of accurately reproducing actual printed conditions, and thereby to produce printed materials providing high reading accuracy.

    Abstract: [PROBLEMS] To improve read accuracy of invisible information printed toge ther with visible information on a medium such as paper. To enable input of a parameter of a value more approximate to the real one into a system to sim ulate environment data and the like during extraction by using color data on each of the visible ink used for printing the background and an invisible b ar code, the indivisible ink, and a physical medium (itself). [MEANS FOR SOL VING PROBLEMS] It is possible to easily input a parameter for simulation use d in an invisible code printing support system by imaging a sample print pre pared for parameter acquisition by using a ~parameter acquiring device~ to s erve as a standard of devices corresponding to the invention of an ~electron ic scrap system~, capturing the image into a DTP system, and reading the col or data on a necessary region into a parameter DB. Since it is unnecessary t o experimentally create and input the parameter and input it as a value, and since a physical medium and an ink both actually used are used as they are, their optical characteristics difficult to numericalize and the influence o f the blue component emitted by an ultraviolet LED emitting ultraviolet ligh t, which is invisible, can be inputted together as an image, the parameter h aving a high reproduction accuracy in actual use can be inputted, and a prin ted sheet with high read accuracy can be produced.
