peer agreement (net): +1sous forme exploitable par machine Explanation: I believe to say formulaire as if it was something into which you enter data is a misreading. It's clearly referring to the distinction between human (natural) language and the language used by computers, binary hexadecimal etc. |

"Formulaire compatible avec la reconnaissance optique de caractères" Explanation: Machine readable means to me that this form shall be introduced in one machine (scanner?) in order to read its content (with an OCR software?). If my guess apply to the context, my proposal could be seriously taken into account. On a technical point of view, you say that the context is back-up. I can clearly undestand that getting bitmap picture from this form takes much more room than storing ASCII characters obtained after ruuning the OCR. |
