Abstract: A form (10) including user-modifiable fields (18) and an encoded description (26) of the location, size, type, etc. of the fields allows direct programming of a form interpreter. Other information, including the processing of the form, encoded data, etc., may be included in the encoded information. A system for creating forms carrying an encoded description of selected attributes of the fields includes means for selecting or creating fields and locating the fields on a form while generating, substantially simultaneously, the encoded description of the selected attributes. A form composer then allows merging of the form and its encoded description for printing or electronic transmission. A system for reading such forms includes a scanner, decoding device, and processor. By reading such forms, data may be entered into or recalled from a data-processing system, or a form interpreter may be programmed, locally or remotely, for subsequent handling of forms.
