纸张一直是主动阅读和其他知识工作者任务的组成部分,因为它提供了数字替代品无法比拟的易用性。纸质文档携带轻便、易于注释、导航快速、操作灵活,并且在各种环境中使用都很稳健。与纸质文档的交互创建了丰富的注释、交叉引用和空间组织网络。不幸的是,由此产生的网络仅限于纸的物理世界,并且随着它们的积累,变得越来越难以存储,搜索和访问。XLibris [Schilit et al. 1998]和类似的系统通过用平板电脑模拟纸张来解决这些困难。虽然这种方法是有前途的,但它不仅受到当前平板电脑的限制(例如,有限的屏幕空间),但也从宝贵的纸张启示的损失。 在这篇文章中,我们描述了PapierCraft,一个基于手势的命令系统,允许用户使用纸质打印机作为代理来操纵数字文档。使用Anoto [Anoto 2002]数字笔,用户可以在纸上绘制命令手势,以标记段落,电子邮件选定的区域,复制选择到记事本,或创建相关文档的链接。笔同步后,PapierCraft执行命令并在数字文档查看器中显示结果。然后,用户可以搜索标记的信息,并浏览由与纸质代理的交互产生的带注释的数字文档的网络。PapierCraft还支持跨混合媒体的真实的实时交互,例如,允许用户将信息从纸张复制到平板电脑屏幕。本文介绍了PapierCraft系统的设计和实现,并介绍了用户从最初使用的反馈。
Paper persists as an integral component of active reading and other knowledge-worker tasks because it provides ease of use unmatched by digital alternatives. Paper documents are light to carry, easy to annotate, rapid to navigate, flexible to manipulate, and robust to use in varied environments. Interactions with paper documents create rich webs of annotation, cross reference, and spatial organization. Unfortunately, the resulting webs are confined to the physical world of paper and, as they accumulate, become increasingly difficult to store, search, and access. XLibris [Schilit et al. 1998] and similar systems address these difficulties by simulating paper with tablet PCs. While this approach is promising, it suffers not only from limitations of current tablet computers (e.g., limited screen space) but also from loss of invaluable paper affordances. In this article, we describe PapierCraft, a gesture-based command system that allows users to manipulate digital documents using paper printouts as proxies. Using an Anoto [Anoto 2002] digital pen, users can draw command gestures on paper to tag a paragraph, e-mail a selected area, copy selections to a notepad, or create links to related documents. Upon pen synchronization, PapierCraft executes the commands and presents the results in a digital document viewer. Users can then search the tagged information and navigate the web of annotated digital documents resulting from interactions with the paper proxies. PapierCraft also supports real time interactions across mix-media, for example, letting users copy information from paper to a Tablet PC screen. This article presents the design and implementation of the PapierCraft system and describes user feedback from initial use.
