Abstract

For automated receiving and distribution, the type of mailing (postal code, post-office box, ID character sequence - address, etc.) and/or a monetary amount are indicated on a printed from (e.g. on a check) by a coded marking, e.g. characterized by crosses at certain positions. The charges for a mailing can be billed using a purchased card, e.g. a mini-smart card that can be separated from a carrier.
